  • Descrição: In the decades after the fall of Constantinople in 1453, the principality of Moldavia emerged as a Christian bastion against the Ottoman Empire that was beginning to assert its dominance over eastern Europe. A new image type developed in the Moldavian monastic context of the early sixteenth century that conflated key historical narratives about Constantinople's miraculous deliverances during the seventh, eighth, and ninth centuries. Painted on the exteriors of several churches in the region, this mural articulated a view of history as a series of interventions and presented a visual commentary to Moldavia's contemporary military struggles.
