Summary
| Description |
English:
In particular the frescos in the narthex (built under Emperor Manuel I, 1238-1263), frescos added shortly after 1250, are a delight. One is striking for its centralized composition: the four evangelists (Mathew as a man, Marcus as a lion, Luke as a ox or bull and John as an eagle), each holding the bible book they wrote, surrounding the hand of god in the centre, with angels and wings without bodies attached surrounding it.
