Balkan School (XX) - The Church of Saint John at Kaneo, in Ohrid

- Oil on canvas. Original canvas. Hand-signed with a personalized dedication on the back. Gallery stamp. - The Byzantine church of Saint John Caneo, built at the end of the 13th century on a rocky promontory that dramatically extends into Lake Ohrid, is one of the most photogenic and refined testimonies of late Byzantine ecclesiastical architecture. Its inscribed cross plan with an octagonal dome combines the austere solidity of brick and stone arranged in opus mixtum with a subtle decorative elegance of Armenian and Romanesque influence, housing inside it remnants of 14th-century frescoes, among which the image of Christ Pantocrator stands out. Suspended above the lake’s abyss, the church not only served as a spiritual beacon and an inspiring retreat for medieval monks, but also impeccably embodies the Byzantine ideal of harmonious integration between sacred devotion and the drama of the natural landscape. - Image dimensions without frame: 30 x 20 cm / 52 x 43 cm with exclusive custom frame.
