Manuel Panselinos (Greek: Μανουήλ Πανσέληνος, late 13th/early 14th centuries) was a fresco and icon painter in the Byzantine Empire. He is one of the most influential artists of the Byzantine period. Many of his attributed works survived. He was very active in the historical province of Macedonia, and is the most prominent figure of the Byzantine style, Palaeologan Renaissance, and the Macedonian School of painting. The center of the school's development was Thessaloniki. The second capital of the Byzantine Empire was Thessaloniki. There were prominent painting workshops in Thessaloniki and Constantinople. Other notable Greek-Byzantine artists were Ioannis Pagomenos and Theodore Apsevdis.[1]
History[]
Manuel Panselinos was born in the later part of the 13th century in Thessaloniki. His primary works were iconography and frescos. His works can be found in monasteries such as Mount Athos, Vatopedi, Lavra, Protatos and Karyes. His most important work is the mural painting of the church of the Protaton Monastery, on the Holy Mount. His contemporaries were Georgios Kalliergis, Michael Astrapas, and Eutychios Astrapas. Some historians believe Georgios Kalliergis was one of his students due to the similarity in painting styles.[2]
