Encaustic panel painting of Madonna and Child, flanked by Saints Theodore and George and two angels. Perhaps made in Constantinople at beg. 7th c. A.D. (Sinai: St. Katherine's Monastery). 68.5 x 48 cm. Frontal saints are intense and flatened. The angels are more impressionistic. The style therefore adapts to the three levels of reality.

An extraordinary example of Byzantine architecture, the Basilica of Saint Vitale was built between 527 & 548. The massive expanses of colorful and highly detailed mosaics are still breathtaking even after nearly 1500 years. Here is shown the bowl-shaped vault of the apse with the Redeemer seated on the celestial globe. For a detail (crop) of the mosaic above: http://www.pbase.com/jboard/image/48682128/original

Recognized for its beautiful Byzantine mosaics, the Basilica of Saint Vitale nave holds a surprise. The dramatic fresco in the dome is well preserved and extremely realistic in its appearance. The angels, flowers and clouds appear to float near an opening in a dome surrounded with ornate, seemingly three-dimensional decorations. The composition draws your eye through the dome and up towards heaven.
