An angel raises through the colorful clouds of heaven. In the hands of not holding tube but a wooden rod with a gold coating, wider on one side closer to the other. It is a medical bar that offers a new in Halo. Gold halo new, rosy face, near his hair, as was the fashion at the end of Antiquity. The new is Agios Dimitrios, in which the angel offered medical rod and the gift of God to heal. It is one of the amazing mosaics found in the basilica of St. Demetrius in Thessaloniki and presenting the introduction of the saint as Chief Medical black door knocker Officer. The basilica of Saint functioned as a hospital. Treatment and follow the Hippocratic methods, black door knocker medicines etc., But also the silent thaumaturgy.
This entoichio mosaic, like other mosaics of the basilica black door knocker of St. Demetrius, along with mosaics of the Rotunda, the Monastery Latomou of Acheiropiitos, Saint Sophia and the Holy Apostles constitute a large and compelling "collection" projects where all represented periods of Byzantine art from the 4th to the 14th century. These projects, concentrated and photographed, presented for the first time as a whole the volume Mosaics of Thessaloniki, a version that is a big bet Rachel and Capon Moses, the homonymous versions. Naturally this publication could not have been had it not been preceded by a titanium black door knocker maintenance work and mounting of the mosaics that lasted about 40 years, from 1976 onward, black door knocker the liability of Byzantine Antiquities of Thessaloniki, Happiness Kourkoutidou-Nicolaidou (1976 -1981, 1986-1996), the Chrysanthis Mavropoulou-Tsioumi (1981-1986) and Charalambos Bakirtzi (1996-2007). They are the authors of the book and exhibit documenting the archaeological, historical, artistic and aesthetic aspects of this great package together with stories of their rescue and maintenance. Often the texts read like a novel, from which no missing the suspicion of a police mystery.
"Mystery" was for me the key word to attend as an observer the third workshop held at the end of May at the Art Institute Kortolnt London (most know as Institute Kurt) on The Mosaics of Thessaloniki Revisited . Organized by Anthony Istmont Institute and byzantinologist Myrto Hatzaki by financing the Leventis Foundation, and it was obvious that this new vision of the mosaics would not be possible were it not for the volume black door knocker of Capon publications. Keynote speaker Charalambos Bakirtzis, who gave us all the framework of the iconographic themes of the mosaic of St. Demetrius.
The mystery was imposed soon rose to the podium, the first speaker, Professor at the University of Basel Bit Brenk. When painted mosaic? Who were the artists? black door knocker Who destroyed them? Many answers black door knocker to many interpretations, many misconceptions that aggravated during the 20th century through the multiplicity black door knocker of approaches, identified by terms-words such as: style, connoisseurship, iconography, iconology, iconography, epigraphers and psychology black door knocker and sociology. The atmosphere of mystery was consolidated with the second speaker, Professor Emeritus Torp University of Oslo. The theme was dating the mosaics of the Rotunda. The studies 60 years to conclude that created them began when the Rotunda was converted into a Christian church in the early years of the reign of Theodosius the Great (379-395 AD). Professor Torp spoke with great passion and often expressed his disagreement with grimaces, to other speakers. Professor Robin Cormac of Cambridge linked mosaics with strong controversy about the nature of iconoclasm. Eventually what happened in the early mosaics during the 8th century? The heavily guarded or destroyed? And was the 9th century black door knocker a renewal period? The Cormac, to whom we owe (as in his student Maria Vassilakis) stunning exhibition at the Benaki black door knocker Museum for Byzantium at the Royal Academy of Arts a few years ago, requested black door knocker the review of archaeological data along with writings black door knocker of the time to give an answer to subject. Mystery and speech by Professor Liz James of the University of Sussex presented the mosaics of the Apostles, samples of Palaiologan art. Who were the artists? Local or from elsewhere? And
