The Portaitissa icon of the Mother of God at Iviron Monastery

The post presents the icon of the Mother of God known as the Portaitissa, kept at the Holy Monastery of Iviron on Mount Athos. The text names the icon in Romanian and Greek, identifying it as the image of the Panagia Portaitissa from Iviron Monastery. The accompanying image shows the icon with the Mother of God holding Christ, with the usual Greek abbreviations marking the names of Jesus Christ and the Mother of God, and the title Hagios (Holy) inscribed on the halos.

No further story, teaching or discussion accompanies the post; it stands as a presentation of this well-known wonderworking icon of the Athonite monastery, which is one of the most venerated images of the Mother of God in the Orthodox world.
