Mileševa Monastery |
The Mileseva monastery was founded between 1234 and 1236 by Serbian King Vladislav.The monastery is situated in a valley of the Mileseva river, near Prijepolje. Mileseva is one of the most important Serbian sanctuaries and spiritual centers.
The first group of frescoes were produced in the 1230s. The other groups include works from the Turkish period.These thirteenth century frescoes may be considered to be the supreme achievement of all the painting in Europe of that time.
The church was lavishly ornamented with sculpture, especially around the portals and windows, which has unfortunately since decayed.
