| description | This research explores the relationship between iconographicprogrammatic
innovations in altar wall paintings of post-Iconoclastic churches intended
to facilitate liturgical interpretation and depictions of the Theotokos
(with Christ) usually placed in the apsidal conch. The conclusion on the
existence of direct semantic ties between this type of portrait and the
discovery of the motif of Christ-Child-on-the-Altar-Table is the result of a
contextual analysis of a specific series of artistic explorations based on
the spatial dispersion of Presentation of Christ in the Temple compositions
on the very edges of the altar spaces, which preceded this iconographic
discovery and were ended shortly thereafter. |
