Virgin Mary and Baby The Holy Megist Monastery of Vatopedi is dedicated to the Virgin Mary and its form dominates the Catholic, portable icons and frescoes. The figure of the Virgin Mary holding the little Christ, either as a Baby, or as a Guide, follows the same iconographic type, where the Virgin with a slight turn to the right, holds Christ a child with her left hand. He, with a firm body, blesses himself with the right hand, while on the left he keeps a closed eloquent. Both forms, Virgin Mary and Christ bear a halo. The expression in Divine faces is peaceful and peaceful. The image draws inspiration from this iconographic type of Virgin Mary, reminiscent of the Cretan School of Theophanes, has isolated other elements and faces, and is presented in a whole body position.
