Abstract

Examined is the earliest layer of wall-paintings in the small, single-aisle church of St George at Plakoto in the village of Malona on Rhodes. This includes the Deesis in the apse and fragments of full-standing saints, among them St George, on the walls of the sanctuary. The frescoes are dated to the eleventh century and are among the very few examples of painting of this period in the Dodecanese.
