| Christ as the 'Wisdom of God', 2nd half of 14th c. Byzantine Museum Thessoloniki The icon, which comes from the Church of Agia Sophia (Holy Wisdom) in Thessaloniki, bears an inscription in which Christ is mentioned as "Sophia tou Theou" (Holy Wisdom). It is the work of an excellent yet anonymous artist. Nevertheless, eponymic painters of the time from Thessaloniki, such as Michael Astrapas and Eutychios, were invited by Serbian rulers to work in their dominions. |
