Icon of the Virgin Mary Glykophilousa, also known as "Sweet Kiss", hand-painted. A very tender Orthodox icon, gilded with gold leaf, from the tradition of the Panagia church.

Dimensions: 7.30 x 9.30 cm

 

This Orthodox icon of the Virgin Glykophilousa (meaning "Sweet Kiss") is handcrafted according to Byzantine canons. On a piece of wood gilded with gold leaf, Mary tenderly embraces the Child Jesus, their cheeks united in a gesture of deep love. Originating from the tradition of the Church of Panagia in Greece, this sacred work is an invitation to inner peace and silent prayer.

The Glykophilousa is one of the most tender Marian representations in the Byzantine tradition. It embodies the divine intimacy between the Mother and her Son, in an affectionate gesture where the Child tenderly kisses Mary's cheek. Highly venerated in Orthodoxy, this icon evokes the sweetness of maternal love and God's tenderness for humanity. Panagia refers to the church in Greece from which this icon originates, adding a local spiritual dimension to this universal image.
