Summary/Abstract: Since the Middle Age, the icons of Eastern Slovakia have often contained the elements of Western art that have undergone transformation and adaptation following the needs of the Byzantine-Slavic liturgical ceremony. Graphics and painting of the Renaissance and Baroque periods enriched not only the ornamentation, but also the iconography of many icons and wall paintings of the churches in Eastern Slovakia as an integral part of post-Byzantine art.
