In Orthodox Byzantine Empire, Virgin Mary had been venerated with great
respect due to her participation of Jesus’ Incarnation and so she had been accepted as an
intercessor for the salvation of the mankind. Because of her important place in Orthodox
Christian faith, Virgin Mary’s passing away (Koimesis) is one of the most important
Orthodox feasts. The iconographic elements of the scene are Mary on her death-bed,
Jesus holding Mary’s soul in his arms, Mary’s soul as a baby (eidolon), angels, apostles,
church fathers, theologians, houses, mourning women, Jewish man who aims to attack
Mary’s body and an angel who cuts the Jewish man’s hands
