Serbian Art in the XVI Century
Longin, the monk who was infected with leprosy, tried to find his salvation in different church 
labours like theology, church poetry, miniature illuminations, icons and fresco paintings.
In the second part of the 16
th
Century, Longin worked on Peć’s Patriarchate in 1563, frescoes 
in Studenica in 1568, antimins in 1563, Mileševa frescoes in 1570, and worked at Gračanica in 
1771, something similar in same time in Priboj Banja and finally participated in Piva monastery 
(Montenegro) in 1573.
Longin in his original native monastic place where he was born at Dečani he made many 
double icons for church light illumination. His best work in 1577 was important, biographic king 
Stephan Dečanski’s, icon.
Longin’s theological dogmatic inspiration was liturgical achievement of the evangelist John 
Apocalipse.
In this chronology of his works, fresco paintings at Poganovo, was normal consequence of his 
colossal artistic activity.
