Image description

The mosaics of the Cathedral were made between the twelfth and mid-thirteenth century by partly local and partly Venetian workers, trained at the Byzantine school.The etymasìa (?t??µas?a, in Greek "preparation") is an iconographic theme that is characterised by the representation of an empty throne with the insignia of Christ. The sense of the theme is that Christ will occupy the throne on his return to earth for universal judgment.The etymasia of the Cathedral of Monreale represents a medallion, with the two-armed cross, the spear and the cane, the throne placed in front of the cross on which the blue mantle of Christ is laid (the human garment), on the throne it rests the Holy Spirit (the dove), at the foot of the throne a jar in which the four nails of his Crucifixion are contained. Duomo di Monreale, sottarco absidale: l'Etimasia (preparazione al trono) con gli strumenti della passione, restaurato nel 1979; mosaico di scuola bizantina a fondo oro. I mosaici del Duomo vennero eseguiti tra il XII e la metà del XIII secolo da maestranze in parte locali e in parte veneziane, formatesi alla scuola bizantina.L'etimasìa (?t??µas?a, in greco "preparazione") è un tema iconografico che prevede la rappresentazione di un trono vuoto con le insegne di Cristo. Il senso del tema è che Cristo occuperà il trono al suo ritorno sulla terra per il giudizio universale.L'etimasia del Duomo di Monreale è data da un medaglione, con la croce a due braccia, la lancia e la canna, il trono posto innanzi alla croce sul quale è steso il mantello blu di Cristo (la vesta umana), sul trono poggia lo Spirito Santo (la colomba), ai piedi del trono un vasetto nel quale sono contenuti i quattro chiodi della sua Crocifissione
