On the other hand, the perception that governs the full-length saints\u2019 figures, the tendency to project the third dimension in the architecture and in the furnishings in the depictions of the evangelists, the classicist-inspired decorative relief medals with bust figures of saints in bust, place the monument in works of the end of the 13th \u2013 early 14th century.<\/p>\n<p>The dedication of the temple to the Archangels is part of the general propensity of local officials to imitate the behavior and practices of the despots of Arta and Ioannina.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">\u00a0Polyxeni Dimitrakopoulou<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row_content&#8221; full_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1667663074061{background-color: #e2e0d9 !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1667556443327{padding-left: 100px !important;}&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1230&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;25&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1949&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;25&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1948&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;25&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1947&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1670791031120{padding-right: 100px !important;padding-left: 50px !important;}&#8221; el_class=&#8221;mymuseums&#8221;]The temple of Taxiarches in Kostaniani, built in the uncommom architectural type of the three-aisled cross-roofed, with frescoes of high artistic quality dated to the end of the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1748","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/efaioa.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1748","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/efaioa.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/efaioa.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/efaioa.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/efaioa.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1748"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/efaioa.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1748\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1951,"href":"https:\/\/efaioa.gr\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1748\/revisions\/1951"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/efaioa.gr\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1748"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
