description | The paper discusses the presence and patterns of use of red ink in the
documents of Serbian rulers belonging to the Nemanjid dynasty (cca
1170-1371). Adopted from Byzantium as a means of emphasizing the ruler’s
immediate involvement in the creation of his documents, in Nemanjid usage
this practice developed and permanently kept some characteristic traits,
encompassing not only elements of royal representation, but also those whose
purpose was text decoration and organization. With regard to the scope and
forms in which it was applied, three distinct phases can be observed - the
first covers the 13th century from the time when the Nemanjid rulers took the
title of king, the second was inaugurated by King Milutin’s rapprochement
with Byzantium in the early 14th century, and the third by Stefan Dušan’s
assumption of the imperial title in 1346. [Project of the Serbian Ministry of
