| Studenica, Church of the Holy Mother of God, Transenna | Artifact | The lead transenna on the central window of the Northern wall of the under-dome area of the Church of the Holy Mother of God in the Monastery of Studenica is the only preserved example of such a decorated window opening in Serbian medieval art. This transenna is contemporary with the construction of the katholikon of Studenica and is dated around 1190. The lead window sash was filled with colored glass in the larger gaps, and the decoration consists of ten medallions (once probably 12). In the center of each field there is a figural representation, whose outlines are made with a series of densely drilled holes. Various motifs, such as floral motifs and representations of realistic and fantastic animals facing the center of the plate, decorated the transenna. Eight preserved fields have depictions of animals and only two have rosettes. The window frame was restored, so it is possible that certain fields were given a place that did not originally belong to them. |
