| Samenvatting: | Our view of Middle Byzantine monumental painting on Mount Athos remains
fragmentary, mainly due to the absence of textual sources on workshops and
patronage. Thus, the attribution of pictorial ensembles to this period

Komnenian Constantinople and Thessalonike. Based on epigraphic, iconographic
and stylistic evidence, the following article will offer an overall
assessment of the extant fragments raising new questions as to their style,
dating and patrons. |
