Medieval Mosaics

Era	11AD - 13AD

In S Giusto, the Santissimo Sacramento with its mosaic of the Virgin and Child, two archangels, Apostles, flora and geometrical patterns are eleventh century whilst the mosaics of Christ with SS. Giusto and Servolo in the main apse are believed to date from the late twelfth or the early thirteenth century.

Shamefully, I haven’t been to Trieste, despite Jan Morris (who doesn’t mention mosaics!!!)
