Virgin Mary Platytera
The icon of the Virgin Mary, portrayed customarily as enthroned or in upright position, holding Jesus in her arms, with her hands outspread and slightly raised, is known as the Virgin Mary Platytera or Platytera of the Skies, the surname Platytera referring to the verse of the Standing-Up Hymn : Hail, aegis of the world, wider of a cloud". The surname Platytera owes its meaning to two reasons. The first one is in reference to her nature as mother of God, the woman who "fit in" her womb the glorious son of God.
The second meaning of the surname Platytera refers to the shield offered by the Virgin Mary to all those who ask for her mercy. The Virgin Mary Platytera provides an immense embracement, shelter and protection to the sinful on earth that turn towards her for mercy and intercession.
