4.02 The work of art pictured is Theodora?s Mosaic in the Basilica of San Vitale in Ravenna, Italy. Theodora was Justinian?s wife whom he married for love. Her humble origin set a precedent for empresses in a lower class chosen for their beauty. Theodora is shown wearing purple and abundance of jewels; even more than the mosaic opposite this one depicting Justinian. The connection between church and state are key elements to the mosaic. Theodora?s robe at the bottom shows the three magi from the nativity story. She is shown holding a cup used for Holy Communion. The bright and various colors of the robes of the courtiers are characteristic of Byzantine Art. The halo around Theodora?s head makes her seem as not just the Emperor?s wife but a Christian ruler in her own right.
