Theotokos

author: Nina Bajrić Blažeković

technique: Oil on canvas

size: 60×80 cm

A striking, classical-style portrait of the Virgin Mary as the Theotokos (God-Bearer). Mary is depicted with remarkable psychological depth, her piercing blue eyes filled with a mixture of profound sorrow, maternal tenderness, and divine strength. She is enveloped in a delicate, glowing golden-white veil that catches the light against a dark, dramatic background, encapsulating her sacred role as a pillar of faith and intercession.

This painting is part of the acclaimed Christological cycle from the “Holy Canvas” exhibition by academic painter Nina Bajrić Blažeković and is part of a private collection.
