Summary[edit]

Description

These are mosaics over the doors of St. Marks Cathedral. They have to do with bringing the body of St. Mark to Venice and presenting it to the doge.

In 828, relics believed to be the body of St. Mark were stolen from Alexandria by two Venetian merchants and taken to Venice, where the Byzantine Theodore of Amasea had previously been the patron saint. A basilica was built there to house the relics.
