1. Title: Proskynetarion with Enthroned Christ: A Byzantine Marble Relief from Peribleptos, Mystras Museum (Lakonia, Peloponnese, Greece) This exquisite marble Proskynetarion, or kneeling-stool, dates back to the second half of the 14th century and is currently housed in the Mystras Museum, Lakonia, Greece. The relief showcases the majestic image of an enthroned Christ Pantocrator, or Almighty Lord, surrounded by various saints and angels, all paying homage to Him in a gesture of deep reverence and devotion. Christ is depicted in His customary regal pose, with His right hand raised in blessing, while His left hand rests on a rolled-up scroll, symbolizing the Gospel. His robes are richly adorned, and His face expresses a serene and benevolent countenance. The intricate details of His halo and the ornate decorations on the throne further emphasize His divine nature and majesty. The Proskynetarion is an essential element of Byzantine art and religious practice. It was used during liturgical ceremonies, allowing the faithful to approach the altar and receive blessings from the priest or the saints' relics. The relief's intricate design and the devotional atmosphere it evokes serve as a testament to the profound influence of Christianity on the artistic and cultural landscape of the Middle Ages. The Proskynetarion's provenance can be traced back to the Monastery of Peribleptos in Mystras, a significant center of Byzantine culture and learning in the Peloponnese region. The monastery, founded in the 13th century, played a crucial role in preserving the artistic and religious heritage of the Byzantine Empire during its decline. This remarkable piece of Byzantine art exemplifies the richness and complexity of the artistic and religious traditions that flourished in Greece during the Middle Ages. Its intricate design, historical significance, and spiritual depth continue to captivate and inspire scholars, artists, and visitors alike.
