The Theotokos Amolyntos takes its name from the hymn at Compline that begins “O undefiled, untainted, uncorrupted, pure Virgin (untainted = amolyntos in Greek)” composed by Paul, monk of the Monastery of Evergetis. This same icon is also known as the Virgin of the Passion, because Christ has his gaze turned toward two angels, who are depicted below the Theotokos holding the Cross, the Spear and Sponge in their hands. The Mother of God in this icon is shown holding Christ in her right arm. Her left hand supports his bare feet, curled around his bent legs. Her right hand with its long and delicate fingers rests protectively on His shoulder. Christ is nestled in the embrace of His mother with His face turned toward the archangel Gabriel who is showing him the chief symbols of His Passion: the great Cross of His sacrifice and His crown of mockery.
