Image of the Virgin Mary Mother of God of Guadalupe (Spanish: Imagen de la Virgen María, madre de Dios de Guadalupe) published in 1648, was the first written account of the story of Our Lady of Guadalupe. It retells the events of the 1531 apparitions that led to the Marian veneration in Mexico City, New Spain.
Theotokos (Greek: Θεοτόκος) [a] is a title of Mary, mother of Jesus, used especially in Eastern Christianity.The usual Latin translations are Dei Genitrix or Deipara (approximately "parent (fem.) of God").
The Council decreed that Mary is the Mother of God because her son Jesus is one person who is both God and man, divine and human. [28] This doctrine is widely accepted by Christians in general, and the term "Mother of God" had already been used within the oldest known prayer to Mary, the Sub tuum praesidium, which dates to around 250 AD. [153]
Mary, the mother of Jesus in Christianity, is known by many different titles (Blessed Mother, Virgin Mary, Mother of God, Our Lady, Holy Virgin, Madonna), epithets (Star of the Sea, Queen of Heaven, Cause of Our Joy), invocations (Panagia, Mother of Mercy, God-bearer Theotokos), and several names associated with places (Our Lady of Loreto, Our Lady of Fátima).
In Byzantium, Mary's usual title was the Theotokos or Mother of God, rather than the Virgin Mary and it was believed that salvation was delivered to the faithful at the moment of God's incarnation. That theological concept takes pictorial form in the image of Mary holding her infant son.
In Chayo's words, "I finally understood who you are. No longer Mary the mild, but our mother Tonantzin. Your church at Tepeyac built on the site of her temple" (128). [139] The image and its alleged apparition was investigated several times, including in the 2013 documentary The Blood & The Rose, directed by Tim Watkins. [140]
Such an image is often placed in the apse of the sanctuary of an Orthodox church above the Holy Table (altar). [2] As with most Orthodox icons of Mary, the letters ΜΡ ΘΥ (short for ΜΗΤΗΡ ΘΕΟΥ, "Mother of God") are usually placed on the upper left and right of the head of the Virgin Mary.
The Madonna of humility by Domenico di Bartolo 1433 has been described as one of the most innovative devotional images from the early Renaissance [35]. Catholic Marian art has expressed a wide range of theological topics that relate to Mary, often in ways that are far from obvious, and whose meaning can only be recovered by detailed scholarly analysis.
