This 13th century Byzantine mosaic, located in the Pammakaristos Church, Istanbul, Turkey, depicts the prophet Jeremia. The artwork is characteristic of Byzantine art, with a focus on religious iconography and the use of gold mosaic tiles to create a sense of grandeur and spirituality. Jeremia is depicted in a traditional pose, holding a scroll and gazing directly at the viewer, his face a mixture of solemnity and divine inspiration. This mosaic stands as a testament to the enduring artistic legacy of the Byzantine era.
