  • Christ the Vine is a tempera painting created by Greek painter Angelos. Angelos was active from 1425 to 1457. He was a teacher and protopsaltis (first chanter). His students included some of the most famous painters of the early Cretan Renaissance. Andreas Pavias and Andreas Ritzos were his students and were heavily influenced by his style. Forty-nine of his works survived. Angelo’s Christ the Vine was one of his most important works. Christ the Vine features twelve figures from the new testament. The work commemorates the evangelists and their important work. , Luke the Evangelist, and Mark the Evangelist are the most important figures on the vine because they were not members of the twelve original apostles. The evangelists were equally important within ecclesiastical circles. This work reflects the significance of the historical figures. His followers during the Apostolic Age are often referred to as the evdomikonta (εβδομήκοντα). People often assume because there are twelve figures on the vine surrounding Christ that the original apostles were represented. Christ the Vine is associated with the parable or allegory of the True Vine. It is referenced heavily in John 15:1–17. Jesus refers to his followers as branches of himself. The work is a pictorial representation of the parable of the True Vine. The theme was copied by countless painters. Angelo’s paintings were the earliest versions. They are the most important paintings of the early Cretan Renaissance. Three versions exist all three are in Heraklion one is at the Vrontisi Monastery in Heraklion. The second portable icon is located at Iera Moni Panagias Exakoustis, Ierapetra, Crete close to Malles.This version is signed by the artist. It is located at the Monastery of the Virgin Hodegetria, in Heraklion, Crete. (en)
