Visoki Dečani
Ripidion made by Kondo Vuk,
1569/70, donated by Radivoj to Dečani Monastery
Contemporary to Longin’s icons, and only twenty or so years earlier than the painted cross on the iconostasis, these ripidia act as evidence that creative vigor had not vanished by the end of the 16th century and that the fraternity of Dečani persistently kept to high standards in adorning their church with icons and liturgical vessels.
