Even though corrosion prints occur, they do not indicate any traces of the twelfth century layer. Actually these abrasions were overpainted, during the 1960s restoration programme. Regarding of which saint occupied the same panel in the original scheme is a debate. As in the north side, a courtly martyr could be a possible representation but who exactly? Eustathios was depicted frequently as a martyr but this would not be the occupation which was based on for his inclusion. Rather for his identification as a warrior as many of the saints of the naos were .

Title A name given to the resource Donor Portrait Subject The topic of the resource Panayia Asinou (Church : Troodos--Cyprus) Icons--post-Byzantine--Cyprus Εικόνες--Μεταβυζαντινές--Κύπρος Παναγία της Ασίνου (Ναός : Τρόοδος--Κύπρος) Description An account of the resource The donor portrait is placed on the southern half of the central blind arch, above the entrance of the Asinou church and is dated to the fourteenth century. It depicts the donor, Magistros Nikephoros Ischyrios, offering the replica of the church to his patron saint, Theotokos. Mary rests Her hand on the church and leads the founder to the enthroned Christ, surrounded by angels. Behind Nikephoros, there is a female figure, his wife or daughter, Gephyra, pictured in a smaller scale, along with her funerary inscription. In front of Mary is Nikephoros’s inscription inquiring about her protection on the day of Judgement. Undoubtedly there was a donor portrait in the original imagery program of the church. Three features, however, do empower the notion that the subject and depiction style of the current scene is traced back to that initial imagery. Firstly, the transcription of the poem evokes those of the twelfth century. Secondly, Nikephoros’s long-nosed face, hairstyle and his chlamys-like apparel reminisces middle Byzantine courtly costume. And thirdly, the replica of the church which is offered by Nikephoros does not contain the later narthex. Gephyra is an enigmatic figure, with regard to her name, her petite size or the conflict of the year and indiction in the date of her death. If her diminutive size corresponds to the implication that she is a child, then her mother should have been shown. On the other hand, if Gephyra is Nikephoros’s wife, then this is a Cypriot unicum of a portrait of a married couple depicting the spouse in a smaller scale. Gephyra died on 17th of December eleven o six, too late to have been included in the initial design, but too soon not be included. Thus the painter or painters designed the figure of Gephyra where there was free space but in a smaller size. Gephyra’s name is an unattested name in Byzantine sources of Cyprus. Safira, though, is a name confirmed in the list of villagers in the area of Asinou in the sixteenth century. Therefore Gephyra could be a paraphrase of the name Safira.

Its depiction here does not equally communicates the notability given to his portrait in the narthex.

Therefore his representation reflects his traditional figure.

Title A name given to the resource Theotokos and Archangels Subject The topic of the resource Panayia Asinou (Church : Troodos--Cyprus) Icons--post-Byzantine--Cyprus Εικόνες--Μεταβυζαντινές--Κύπρος Παναγία της Ασίνου (Ναός : Τρόοδος--Κύπρος) Description An account of the resource The Mother of God flanked by the Archangels is depicted on the east side of the southern door of the naos. She sits on a rounded throne and holds Jesus Christ as a child in her arms. On the left side of Mary, there is Archangel Michael and Archangel Gabriel is shown on her right side. Strange enough is the elongation of the figures in the scene, as if the painter draw it on purpose to cover a standing figure on the original fresco layer. The scene as a whole within the frame of the panel resembles to that of an icon specifically painted for veneration, a proskynetarion. Its position was not chosen by chance as it is located adjacently to the icons of Christ the Merciful and Mary. Regarding the duplication of the depiction of Mary here and on the Paraklesis icon, the proskynetarion of the enthroned Mary functions as the depiction of the patron saint of the church and not as the Intercessor between the humankind and the Eleemon. Comparing the throne of Mary and the throne of Christ on the patronal scene on the lunette just above it is profound that the enthroned Mary is an inspiration of the fourteenth century. Special mention must be given to the scarcity of the depiction of enthroned Mary before the late twelfth century. As from the second half of the twelfth century, the presence of these mural icons became mainstream but again they were not placed with a purpose. Only at Lagoudera and Asinou they were located strategically, along with archangels.

They are Saint Ermolaos, Saint Panteleimon, Saint Damian and Saint Cosmas. They were practitioners who offered their services without accepting any money from their patients and therefore were associated with the concept of healing. Their depiction on the soffit of the south wall was intentional and promoted their protective role, not only for the worshippers but the donor too. Even though traces of the twelfth layer are not visible in any part, it is supposed that the same saints were painted there and this is another way the cosmopolitan aura of Asinou is revealed. The Anargyri Cosmas and Damian are of particular interest as possibly in every church they are included within their iconographic cycles.

Title A name given to the resource Martyrs Of Edessa Subject The topic of the resource Panayia Asinou (Church : Troodos--Cyprus) Icons--post-Byzantine--Cyprus Εικόνες--Μεταβυζαντινές--Κύπρος Παναγία της Ασίνου (Ναός : Τρόοδος--Κύπρος) Description An account of the resource The busts of the Martyrs of Edessa and Saint Thalelaios, are depicted in the four medallions on the western face of the soffit of the southern wall. Additionally to the fact that they share the same day of commemoration, as the other three clusters of Saints in medallions on the soffits of the south and north wall the Martyrs have also the same place of origin, Edessa. From left to right, they are recognised as Saint Abibos, Saint Gourias, Saint Samonas and Saint Thalelaios. Underneath the current layer of the fourteenth century, it is supposed that again the same saints were depicted, as they were a favourable theme during the middle Byzantine period in the whole empire. This emerges the multicultural influence of Asinu’s iconographic programme. As all other saints attested on the soffits of the south and north wall of the central bay, they are considered as healers in the manner of miracle workers. In this aspect, a protective mantle over the worshippers and the donor was hypothetically covering the church.

Title A name given to the resource Christ Merciful Subject The topic of the resource Panayia Asinou (Church : Troodos--Cyprus) Icons--post-Byzantine--Cyprus Εικόνες--Μεταβυζαντινές--Κύπρος Παναγία της Ασίνου (Ναός : Τρόοδος--Κύπρος) Description An account of the resource Christ the Merciful is depicted on the left side of the templon and is part of the Paraklesis composition, along with His mother and John the Baptist depicted across. This representation corresponds to the Deesis depicted on either side of the eastern wall of the narthex and in turn establishes a visual analogy between the two. This duplication was not unusual within the late Byzantine monastic mural programmes. According to scholars, their depictions in these two parts of the church operate as gradual thresholds of holiness. It bears no doubt that Christ the Merciful was part of the original programme of the Paraklesis as he was the receiver of Mary’s praise for showing mercy to the humankind. But the fourteenth-century fresco must have undergone a few stylistic modifications. The Christ in the bema imitates the posture, gestures and colour palette of His figure in the narthex but in a more lifelike manner, in order him to be evenly depicted on the available space of the panel. The depiction of Christ holding the book and the inscription on it taken from John (13:34): 'A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; even as I have loved you'. It seems not being part of the original programme as depictions of the Paraklesis before the 1105/6 cycle did not include Him holding a book. Therefore they thought to be innovative entries of the fourteenth century.
