The wall paintings of Saint Nicholas at Maritsa, Rhodes (1434/5) nd the painter Alexios.
Abstract
The church of St Nicholas at Maritsa (1434/5) preserves one of the most characteristic painted ensembles of Hospitaller rule on Rhodes. The abbreviated iconographic program, with the representation of popular regional saints, as well as hierarchs, and reference to the painter Alexios in the dedicatory inscription, whose paintbrush can be recognized in part of the decoration of St Anastasia in the village of Monolithos on Rhodes, provide additional information regarding artistic production on Rhodes in the 15th century.
