From right to left, they are recognised as Saint Mardarios with its distinctive red vivid cap, Saint Evyenios as a yound man, Saint Ayxentios with long grey hair and Saint Eystratios painted with pale face. The fifth saint of Sebaste, Orestes, is not depicted. The Saints were associated with healing as miracle workers, and their depiction was for taking care the congregation of the church and of course, the donor. They were a frequent theme, a ‘standard’, in fresco programmes across the middle Byzantine world. Consequently these saints show that Asinu was not a provincial and rural monastic foundation, but its programme was shaped by cosmopolitan ideas. Therefore although traces of the twelfth layer do not survive, it can be argued that the same Saints were portrayed there.

Title A name given to the resource Martyrs Of 11 November 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 Martyrs of 11th November, are depicted on the western face of the soffit of the northern wall’s arch. They are (from right to left) Saint Minas, Saint Viktor and Saint Vikentios. The last one is Saint Stephanetes. According to their Vitas, these Saints were healers, in the form of miracle workers. They were chosen to be depicted on the arches of the naos, by protecting the worshippers and the donor. Saint Minas is a saint connected to Cyprus as he was widely venerated. Also these Saints were chosen frequently, and became the norm for middle Bizantine mural cycles across the empire. Therefore it is profound that the painters draw inspiration from cosmopolitan ideas traveled to Cyprus.

Title A name given to the resource Paraklesis (Theotokos And John The Forerunner) 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 composition of Paraklesis flanks the templon of the naos. The portraits of Mary and John and Christ the Merciful are depicted on either side of the bema, responds and create a link with the same representation attested, on the respective position in the narthex leading to the naos. This duplication motif was a common figurative scheme in late Byzantine monasteries. As scholars state, both representations operate as gradual markers of holiness zones with the ultimate holiness area of a church being the sanctuary. The most elaborate figure of the composition is Mary. She is inclined towards Christ and holds a scroll on which a verse dialogue between her and her son is written. Mary’s words are written in black and Christ’s in red. The Theotokos beseeches her son for salvation in favour of the humankind: “Receive the entreaty of the one who bore you, O Logos.” “What is it you seek, mother?” “The salvation of mortals.” “They have angered me.” “Have compassion, my son.” “But they do not repent.” “And save [them out of your] charity.” “They shall be redeemed.” “I thank you, O Logos.” The representation of Mary praising her son, can be attested from the late twelfth century onwards and was a favourite theme in monumental art, not only in Cyprus but in the Byzantine world in general. Therefore, the possibility of the Paraklesis appearing within the initial iconographic program at Asinou, as early as the early twelfth century, would preserve a distinguished example. Depending on a missing patch of the fourteenth century fresco layer, we can assume that in the original scene again Mary was depicted on the same that position but far more left from the current figure, closer to the north wall. Moreover if we assume that again Mary was holding a scroll based on the respective composition at Apsinthiotissa, then this would be much narrower than the present. Therefore the Paraklesis in the bema at Asinou seems to serve as one of the earliest examples of the synthesis and stresses the church’s ground-breaking mural programme. Concerning John the Baptist, he is depicted in khaki chiton, holding a shaft with a cross on its top and a scarf knotted in front. He must not be included behind Mary in the programme of 1105/6 as there was not enough space. However, during the course of the period between the original fresco programme and the fourteenth century layer, the inclusion of John in the Paraklesis composition in contemporaneous churches became the norm. Therefore it was inevitable him not to be included.

The first scene on the north is the ram tied to a tree, the second one is the flaming altar and the third is Abraham interrupting the sacrifice of Isaac as an angel by saying: “Abraham, Abraham, do not lay your hand on the boy”. The fourth scene, on the southern end of the arch, portrays two young boys along with the grazing donkey.

Title A name given to the resource Pantanassa 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 Pantanassa (Queen of All), flanked by Archangels Michael and Gabriel, are depicted on the conch of the apse of the bema area. They belong to the late thirteenth-century fresco layer. Mary is portrayed full-length in the type of Acheiropiitos with her hands raised in supplication and the Archangels stepping towards her with bare hands in evidence of veneration. In stylistic and technical terms, the figure of the Virgin resembles to a great degree the portrait of Saint Anastasia Pharmakolytria and her devotee Anastasia Saramalina, in the narthex, which is dated to the iconographic programme of 1332 A.D. Comparing their faces, the similarities are impressive, leading the archaeologists to state that both murals were executed by the same hand. The particular iconographic type of the Virgin with her hands raised in prayer, depicted on the thirteenth-century fresco layer, does not seem to copy the original composition. There is a strong belief suggesting that initially the Virgin with a medallion of Christ on her breast was painted on the apse. In support of that, firstly, the Asinou Master who adorned the apse of the bema also adorned the tympanum above the eastern door of the narthex within the same iconographic programme, i.e. 1105. That composition shows the Mother of God with the Christ within a medallion in front of her. Therefore, it would be odd to paint the Mother of God in two entirely different types. Additionally, a proportion of the other surviving contemporaneous apses in Cyprus includes the Virgin in the type with the medallion. Therefore the intriguing fact is that the type in which Virgin is depicted on the apse of Asinou was not a trend in the period between the initial and the later fresco layer, suggesting a paradox.
