Founders or Donors? Images and Inscriptions of Supplicants in Later Byzantium and Medieval Serbia
P. 195–220.
Adashinskaya A.
This article deals with the problem of the status of persons, who were depicted as small figures or mentioned in inscriptions placed next to saints or scenes in churches built in medieval Serbia and the countries of the Byzantine commonwealth. The author asks whether these people should be considered the founders or donors of the churches where their paintings and inscriptions are placed. The article first considers the differences between the legal status of donors and founders in Byzantine law, and then moves on to a review of historical examples, which show that the most generous contributors could obtain status similar to or equal to that of a founder.
