In the series titled "Madonnas of the Greeks," there is a brief yet responsible presentation of the history of the most well-known and beloved images of the Theotokos among the Greeks.
The love and honor attributed to them become evident when they are exhibited for veneration in the capital or other cities in Greece. It is then that one realizes the devotion even of those considered secular, who "stand" in massive "queues" in order to kiss the sacred image, to lay a flower before the Theotokos, to light their candle, and mainly to confide in her "from the depths" their problems, petitions, or to express "thank you" and gratitude for some miraculous intervention in their lives.
For they know that the "Mistress of the world" is the "hope and protection of the faithful," does not overlook their requests, and intercedes for "the good and beneficial of their souls," leaving no one to depart from her "ashamed."
