Description<\/h4>\n

The second layer of the painting probably decorated only the chancel of the basilica.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Chancel<\/h6>\n

In the conch a short version of the composition of Christ in Majesty<\/em> was represented. Christ, seated on the throne which was embellished with ornamented poles and cushions decorated with floral patterns, had the right hand raised in blessing. A tetramorph was depicted on His right (only the images of a lion and an ox could be discerned) and a seraph \u2013 on the left. Figures of archangels clad in loros were depicted on both sides of the throne at the edges of the conch.<\/p>\n\n
