Description
Anna, the mother of the Virgin, is depicted on the pillar underneath the Annunciation scene. Along with eoakim, Her father, portrayed on either respond of the bema arch, proclaim the human nature of Christ in the Annunciation.
Depictions of them have been attested at Trikomo and at Asinu itself on the twelfth century layer within the bema area in scenes of the Mariological cycle. However, the whole representation of the bema arch bears visual features belonging to its era. Their contemporaneous parallels are to be found in Crete where Anna and eoakim are depicted in medallions beneath the Annunciation.
