Georgian Icon from Shemokmedi, 11th century
Christ taken down from the cross; prepared for burial; & the women, angel and sleeping guards at the empty sepulcre.
The three warriors, portrayed on the Shemokmedi icon dating from the 2nd half of the 11th c., wear one-piece helmets (Cowe 2006, 348, fig. 235): they are lower and more conic than the high, sphero-conical helmets characteristic of the following period (fig. 5). Of great interest is the lengthened part of the helmet which covers the back of the head and the upper part of the neck, this is characteristic of later helmets. The warriors, depicted in miniature 111r of the Second Tetraevangelion of Jruchi dating from the 12th c., have similar features.
