Popis | The paper aims to unravel the intricate dynamics of musealization of medieval ecclesiastic objects within Georgia’s National Museum, with a special focus on the famous 10th century Khakhuli triptych. The latter was commissioned by Georgia’s most celebrated king Davit the Builder, stolen in late 19th century by a private Russian collector and later repatriated under Stalin’s directive in the 1920’s. Currently held in the possession of Georgian Orthodox Church and exhibited as a centerpiece of the collection coined as Georgian National Treasure, the icon is daily venerated by visitors who treat it with religious reverence. The presentation will thus delve into the interplay between heritage preservation, political and ecclesiastical governance, and communal dynamics. |
