Revisiting the Veljusa frescoes
The paper discusses the iconographic program of the frescoes in the south parekklesion of the Church of the Virgin Eleousa at the Veljusa Monastery, the foundation of Manuel, Bishop of Strumitza, built in 1080. It focuses on the figure of St. Niphon or, more specifically, the cult and iconography of this saint, whose representations in art are quite uncommon. It considers several images of St. Niphon in Serbian medieval painting that previous res…
Ever ready throne
The Church of the Virgin Eleousa in Veljusa was commissioned by the former bishop of Tiberioupolis (Strumica), monk Manuel. In the narthex, under the arcosolium adjacent to the south wall, a brick grave was discovered by archaeologists. According to the finds, the construction of the grave was inseparable from the southern wall, thus indicates that the monk Manuel commissioned a tomb establishing a place of his eternal rest. The original painting…

The Byzantine processional cross from Zupa dubrovacka
A Byzantine processional cross is preserved in the church of St. Nicholas in Žakula in Župa dubrovačka. Past research has dated the cross between the 6th and 10th centuries. This artifact was found at the archeological site of St. George’s church, which was most likely constructed between the 10th-12th centuries. The cross is of a tear-shaped type and bears inscriptions that invoke the name of Archistrategos Michael and refer to his Miracle at Ch…
The path to redemption
The church complex of the monastery at Pec achieved its final form with the projects undertaken by archbishop Danilo II (1324-1337). He began with the church of the Virgin Hodegetria (circa 1330) that would house his tomb. His sarcophagus was placed in the northwestern corner of the church below the vault of a small, elongated space. A shared narthex was added to the three monastery churches included in the Pec complex in the early 1330s. The wes…
On the threshold of certainty
The katholikon of the Hosios Loukas monastery, built around the first quarter of the eleventh century, has a narthex with a mosaic decoration on its west side. The Incredulity of Thomas is included amongst the scenes of the Passion. This paper examines the iconographic, liturgical, and dogmatic roles of the Incredulity within the context of the overall program and the liminal space of the narthex. This monumental representation evidences how depi…
