Yes, historically most important are the frescoes of Christ and The Mother of God with Christ in The Holy Mother of God Ljeviska Cathedral.

Painted around 1310/12 they are imprtant for understanding the roots of La Renaissance.

Destruction of this work of art is great loss for Western civilisation. I am afraid This is a preview of comming attractions. The Holy Mother of God Ljeviska today, Notre Dame tomorrow.
