 The
Church St. Jovan Bogoslov at Kaneo: A church
dedicated to St. Jovan Bogoslov. There is written record of the time it was
built, but it is believed that it originates from the 13th century.
The donor and the icon-painter of the church are unknown. Significant to the
architecture of the church is the exquisite combination of Byzantine and
Armenian elements, which creates very favorable space for examining the medieval
monuments in Ohrid. The fresco-painting for the most part is destroyed. Only the
fragments of the altar fresco which present "Communition of the
Apostles", the portrait of St. Clement, and St. Erazmo and Constantine
Kavasilis have been preserved. |
