This text is dealing with a rare thematic innovation that appeared in
Byzantine wall painting of the thirteenth century. In particular, the author
explores the iconography of the Vision of Saint Peter of Alexandria as found
in the Church of St. Archangels in Prilep around 1270. He argues that this
work manifests a key moment in the development of this composition over the
course of the thirteenth century. This links the same motif found in Melnik
from the beginning of the thirteenth century, and a composition from the
Church of the Virgin Peribleptos in Ohrid from 1294/1295. In the end, place
of the Vision in the painted program of the western part of the Church of St.
Archangels in Prilep is analyzed.
