| Abstract | ||
| In this paper, my focus will be on the different attitudes of the Holy Virgin Mary which appear in the decoration of several Coptic artistic collections conserved and displayed now in the Coptic Museum in Cairo and in the other international archeological museums abroad. This study deals also with some of the Mariological scenes decorating the interior walls of many Coptic monasteries and churches in Old Cairo, Wadi Natrun, Sohag and the Red Sea. Moreover, the present study will describe and analyze some precious examples of Coptic stone work, woodwork, metal objects, ivory panels, manuscripts, icons and wall paintings in order to know more details about the various depictions of the Holy Virgin Mary and her figures in Coptic art. | ||
