"Journeying through the Medieval Age: A Glimpse into Byzantine Mosaics" Step back in time to the 12th and 13th centuries, where intricate Byzantine mosaics tell captivating tales of biblical stories and spiritual enlightenment. In one mosaic, Lazarus lies on his deathbed, embodying the parable of the rich man and Lazarus. As Lazarus ascends to heaven under Abraham's watchful eye, the rich man faces fiery retribution for his sins in Hell. Moving along, we encounter St. Paul's beheading depicted in a striking mosaic found within the Northern transept. The vivid portrayal transports us to ancient Rome as we witness this martyrdom unfold before our eyes. Continuing our journey, we stumble upon Adam resting peacefully in Earthly Paradise—a serene depiction from an Old Testament cycle that captivates with its timeless beauty. The Tower of Babel rises majestically in another mosaic from the same cycle—its construction symbolizing human ambition and divine intervention during The Great Flood. Jesus' miracles come alive through vibrant mosaics depicting him bringing a widow's son back to life or rescuing St. Peter from treacherous waves. These episodes from Christ's life inspire awe and faith even after centuries have passed. Stunningly displayed is St. Peter seated on a magnificent throne—an image that radiates power and authority within the Southern transept mosaic. As we approach yet another masterpiece, we witness humanity being expelled from Earthly Paradise due to original sin—a poignant reminder of mankind's fallibility amidst God's creation. Noah diligently loads animals onto his Ark—the monumental task captured meticulously by Byzantine artists who immortalized this moment within their mosaics during The Great Flood cycle. Lastly, St Cassius and St Casto stand before an emperor while remaining steadfast in their faith—an inspiring scene that showcases unwavering devotion despite persecution.
