This simply stunning wooden icon of Panayia of Rodos and Baby Jesus is the perfect Holy piece for your home.
The Panagia of Rhodes (Παναγία της Ρόδου) is one of the most beloved representations of the Virgin Mary in the Dodecanese islands. When she is shown or honored with flowers, it reflects both Orthodox theology and local Rhodian customs: 🌺
- Feast of the Dormition (15 August)
- Purity and Life: Flowers—often white lilies or roses—symbolize her immaculate purity and the life-giving grace she brings through her intercession with Christ.
- Joy and Thanksgiving: Rhodians decorate her icons with flowers to thank her for blessings or answered prayers, or to accompany processions on her feast days.
- Offerings in Churches: Locals frequently place fresh flowers or garlands around her icon as a personal act of devotion—especially after baptisms, weddings, or during times of need.
- Spring Celebrations: During Pascha (Easter) and spring feasts, floral decoration of Panagia’s icons symbolizes new life and the Resurrection.
