  • The Madre Della Consolazione Icon in the British Museum: Post-Byzantine Painting, Painters and Society on Crete*
    JAHRBUCH DER ÖSTERREICHISCHEN BYZANTINISTIK, 53. Band/2003, 239–255 © 2003 by Österreichische Akademie der Wissenschaften, Wien ANGELIKI LYMBEROPOULOU / BIRMINGHAM THE MADRE DELLA CONSOLAZIONE ICON IN THE BRITISH MUSEUM: POST-BYZANTINE PAINTING, PAINTERS AND SOCIETY ON CRETE* With two plates A small portable icon (350 × 270 mm), now in the British Museum, Department of Medieval and Later Antiquities (reg. No. 1994, 1–2, 6), depicts the Virgin and Child (fig. 1). It is painted on a single panel of pine wood, apparently without fabric between the ground and wood support. The icon was bequeathed by Guy Holford Dixon JP, who bought it from the Temple Gallery. A label on the back, attached when the icon was in the possession of the Temple Gallery, describes it as being Russian of the six- teenth century. In a preliminary Museum catalogue, however, the origin was given as Italy or Crete and the date as seventeenth century.1 The truth about the origin and the dating of the icon, as we shall see, lies in the mid- dle: I will argue that it is from Crete and of the sixteenth century. The Virgin is depicted half-length, holding the Christ-Child in her right arm while touching His left leg gently with her left hand. Her head is tilted towards the Child, although she does not look at Him. She wears a green garment and a purple maphorion on top, which bears pseudo-kufic decoration on the edges; decorative motives are also visible on the gar- ment’s collar and left sleeve. The maphorion is held together in front of the Virgin’s chest with a golden brooch, which apparently used to have decora- tion, now lost.

The His- -'- -.,-a toria's interpretation is highly symbolic, steeped in scripture and dependent on 1 earlier and contemporary theological thought. On occasion, the text sheds light I'on actual architectural developments, as in the case of the skeuophylakion. On I the whole, however, the discussion of architecture is rather vague. I argue that I the Histona is part of a long exegetical tradition on the liturgy that disregards the functional aspects of church buildings, a disconnect enabled by the adapt- I ability of Byzantine liturgical rites. i - Adresse: Prof. Dr. Vasileios Marinis.

  • Designated EM Directions Before Mass Unlock the Tabernacle And
    Designated EM Directions Before Mass Unlock the tabernacle and leave the key in it. Check the ciborium to see how many hosts are left from the previous Mass. A full ciborium is about 250 hosts. We want about 200-250 leftover in the tabernacle. The new larger hosts have caused us to over-judge the actual amount in the tabernacle and this leaves us critically short after mass. • HOSTS: Be sure to use the new larger communion hosts in the square plastic containers (not the sleeved ones). Estimate the appropriate amount of hosts for that mass plus the desired 200-250 leftover amount. Place the largest diameter host on top of the communion hosts in the large ciborium. NOTE: At some of the masses when more than 500 unconsecrated hosts are needed you will need to use an additional ciborium and place it along with the large ciborium at the gifts table. The large ciborium cannot safely hold more than 500 without the danger of spillage. • WINE: Pre-pour the appropriate amount wine into the appropriate number of cups. DO NOT OVER FILL WINE CUPS ( trays in cabinet above sink ) Use a small cruet for the priest’s wine (about 1.5 to 2 ounces) • Take the large ciborium and the small wine cruet to the gifts table in rear of chapel. • Take the empty ciboria (one for each Host server less the number of ciboria in the Tabernacle) to the left side of the left credence shelf. For example, if it is a 4Host/4Cup setup you would have 3 empty ciborias plus the one in the Tabernacle.

  • Guidelines: Rite of Eucharistic Exposition and Benediction
    LITURGY-9 2/1/2000 Guidelines RITE OF EUCHARISTIC EXPOSITION AND BENEDICTION Exposition of the Holy Eucharist, either in a ciborium or in a monstrance, leads us to acknowledge Christ’s marvelous presence in the sacrament and invites us to the spiritual union with him that culminates in sacramental communion. In such exposition care must therefore be taken that everything brings out the meaning of eucharistic worship in correlation with the Mass.
