Description
Our Lady Phorviotisa is pictured on the tympanum of the eastern arch above the door leading from the central bay to the narthex. It is for the first time who is mentioned with her descriptive designation ‘Phorviotisa’. She is shown with hands raised in prayer and Christ as a child in front of her within a medallion. In this way, the doctrine of the Incarnation of the Word of God is showed. The particular iconographic type can see its roots in an icon located in the Vlachernon Monastery in Constantinople.
