Byzantine representations of Christ often emphasized his male beauty, especially
in Passion scenes. However, in literary tradition, descriptions that were supposed
to manifest a person as the ‘object of desire’ were usually composed by asserting
sensual traits that were connected to the ideals characteristic for feminine beauty.
The aim of this paper is to discuss the possibility of fashioning the image of Christ
as the object of desire by analyzing the two miniatures of the Couch of Solomon
in the Kokkinobaphosmanuscripts. They will be problematized in the context of
mystical devotion to Christ where he is equated with the Holy Bridegroom from
the Song of Songs.
