| Studenica Monastery, Church of Joachim and Anne (the King's Church) | Place | The Church of the Saints Joachim and Anne, later renamed into the King's Church, is situated next to the monastery's katholikon in the Studenica Monastery. It was built in 1313 or 1314 by the Serbian King Stefan Uroš II Milutin (reigned 1282-1321) (ZN 46, Danilo 138) as indicated in the inscription on the façade below the roof cornice. The church is constructed as a building with a reduced cruciform ground plan and a dome. The Church was fresco decorated by Michael Astrapas, one of the leading painters of the epoch, in the spirit of Byzantine classicism of the Palaiologan era. It was fitted with white marble furnishings and reliefs. |
