Eleusa
Eleusa (kwa Kigiriki: Ἐλεούσα – hisani) ni mtindo wa picha takatifu unaomuonyesha Bikira Maria akimpakata mtoto Yesu, nyuso zao zikigusana.[1][2]
Kati ya picha takatifu za aina hiyo, maarufu zaidi ni ile ya Bikira Maria wa Vladimir kutoka Urusi.
Aina hiyo ya michoro inapatikana hata katika Ukristo wa Magharibi[3][4]
