Research Abstract |
This research aimed to explain how contemporary Byzantines understood and used the image of Virgin Eleusa by observing the function of "topos" in churches. As a result, the researcher discovered that during the late Byzantine period (13 through 15^<th> century) the image was introduced into the realm of private faith as an intimate image that can also be understood in the funereal context.
