The Tale:
This particular artwork was modeled after the multicolored decorations of the church of Iphrari, painted in 1096. Not many names of medieval Georgian painters have remained until modern times, much less of those who have decorated three churches with all of them being dated. However, as it turns out, the painter of the “Iprari” church mentions himself as “Theodore, the painter of the King”. It is assumed, that he was a royal painter of the magnificent king David IV “the Builder”.
