Description
English: Marvelous mosaic of Christ Pantocrator (“ruler over all”) from the Hagia Sophia in Istanbul. It is the central figure of the so called Deësis mosaic (Δέησις, "Entreaty") which probably dates from a relatively late 1261. It is considered by many to be the finest mosaic in Hagia Sophia.
