In the art of the Christian East, the depictions of the martyrdom of Saint Ignatius Theophorus, bishop of Antioch, can usually be found among the illustrations of the Menologion. The scene from the monastery of Novo Hopovo, dated to the 1600s, is one of the rare independent depictions of Saint Ignatius’s martyrdom. The paper discusses the iconography of this scene and possible reasons for placing it in the prothesis of the katholikon of Novo Hopovo. The inclusion of a scene showing the martyrdom of the bishop of Antioch into the thematic repertoire of this compartment is a solitary example in Serbian medieval and Byzantine monumental painting.

The themes in the sanctuary decoration at Markov Manastir (Christ Emmanuel, Virgin Orans, Descent of the Holy Spirit on the Apostles), whose peculiar iconographic elements reveal the mysteries of the Holy Trinity and the archpriesthood of Christ in the liturgical and theological context of the fourteenth century, are discussed in this paper. The remains of the text in the leitourgikon held by Christ the Archpriest have been re-examined. It seems plausible to assume that the inscription or a part of it referred to the opening dialogue of the anaphora. The iconographic peculiarities of individual items carried in the Great Entrance procession, modelled according to the structure of the archieratical Divine liturgy, have been reconsidered. It has been established that the way in which the large aer was carried, and its place in the procession escorting the Eucharistic gifts - which was very close to the holy offerings - followed the iconographic tradition of the Heavenly Liturgy in the dome, while the evidence for its shape and size can be found in a somewhat later liturgical source - the Patriarchal liturgical Diataxis of Dimitrios Gemistos.

The church of St Theodore (also known as "Sts Theodoroi") at Platanos, Kynouria, is a single-nave building of small dimensions. The interior surfaces of its walls preserve their Byzantine paintings, which are partially visible under the coat of plaster that covers most of them. The paintings exhibit affinity with wall-paintings of churches in the Peloponnese (neighbouring Laconia included), and can be dated to the last quarter of the thirteenth century.

This paper focuses on offering a possible iconographic interpretation of the decoration of a rare three nozzle lamp discovered in the ancient city of Viminacium, on the locality of a necropolis called Pecine, dated to the early fourth century. Among the numerous lamps unearthed at the site of this prominent Roman city, capital of Moesia Superior, this example stands out for its rectangular shape, three nozzles and a decoration of high artistic merit consisting of geometric and floral ornaments. Considering the function and meaning of lamps within the framework of Early Christian teachings, liturgy and burial practices, this imagery can be understood as visualization of concepts related to perceptions of eternity and otherworldly, divine light.

The paper reviews the last will of the Kotor nobleman Nycolaus Marini Glauacti made in 1327 to bequeath to St. George’s church on the small island near Perast a depiction of the Madonna, St. Nicholas and St. John the Baptist. On the one hand, the legacy is analyzed in the context of the compositions involving the three saints in Kotor’s religious medieval art and, on the other, in the context of ad pias causas bequests and the concept of preparing for a good death (ars moriendi). The contents of the testaments of Nycolaus and his brother Johannes Marin Glauacti as of 1336 are contrasted, especially in terms of the number of pro remedio animae items bequeathed and their distribution. A special emphasis is laid on the comparison of the representations between the Franciscan and Benedictine Orders as the recipients of pious bequests.

The paper is devoted to the chronology of the genesis of the iconostasis and the choros of the monastery of Piva and to the attribution of some of their icons. It presents the hitherto unpublished Deesis row which formed part of the original altar screen and was painted sometime between 1586 and 1604. The Deeisis and the somewhat younger Crucifix (1606) were mounted on the old iconostasis above the despotic icons painted by Longin in 1573/1574. At least one of the two-sided icons from the subsequently made choros (1610/1611) is not his work. For the new carved wooden iconostasis (1638/1639) the Serbian painter Jovan painted the despotic icons and the icon of the Descent of the Holy Spirit in the upper tier. A disciple of his painted the other eleven icons of the Great Feasts.

这篇论文致力于研究圣像和皮瓦修道院合唱的起源年表,以及他们的一些圣像的归属。它展示了迄今未发表的Deesis行,这是原始祭坛屏风的一部分,画于1586年至1604年之间。圣像和稍年轻的十字架(1606年)被安装在旧圣像上,上面是朗金在1573/1574年画的专制圣像。在后来制作的合唱(1610/1611)中,至少有一个双面图标不是他的作品。新雕刻的木制圣像(1638/1639),塞尔维亚画家约凡在上层画了专制的圣像和圣灵降临的圣像。他的一个弟子画了其他十一幅大节日的圣像。[南斯拉夫]塞族共和国部长项目;[177036] Srpska srednjovekovna metnost, njen evropski kontekst .][177032: Tradicija, invacija i identitet u vizantijskom [j]

In this paper, the monastery of Prisklabetza (Πρισκλάβητζα) in Prilep, mentioned as the endowment of Michael Glabas Tarchaneiotes in the shortened version of the History by George Pachymeres, is identified with the monastery of Treskavac near Prilep. This conclusion is supported by the similarity between the names of the two monasteries, the composition with a ktetor in the porch of the main entrance to Treskavac, and the nature of construction works carried out in the monastery between 1280 and 1320.

In the katholikon of the monastery of Praskvica there are remains of two layers of post-Byzantine wall-painting: the earlier, from the third quarter of the sixteenth century, and later, from the first half of the seventeenth century, which is the conclusion based on stylistic analysis and technical features. The portions of frescoes belonging to one or the other layer can be clearly distinguished from one another and the content of the surviving representations read more thoroughly than before.

Five churches with mural paintings of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries have survived in Stemnitsa, a wealthy post-Byzantine town with a rich historical heritage in the central Peloponnese. In the sixteenth century the Church of St Nicholas and in the seventeenth century the wall-paintings in four churches, Panagia Baphero, Prophet Elijah, St Panteleemon and the katholikon of the monastery of the Zoodochos Pege are consistent with the general clime of seventeenth-century painting in the Peloponnese where many and different trends developed in this period.
