Byzantine paintings have been traced back to their roots around the 1st or 2nd century AD, and are known more commonly as the early Christian paintings. Such paintings included wall paintings, smaller, movable icons, mosaics, and painted manuscripts of the artists from the Greek Empire of Byzantine.
Byzantine Art originated during the 6th century AD. This art was conceived with the Greek Emperor Justinian's rule and ended with the Iconoclastic Controversy that was initiated by the Emperor Leo the Isaurian during his rule in the 8th century AD.
Typically, they appeared in the catacombs of the first Roman churches and even further east. This Christian art essentially descended from what was the ancient art of Greece.
In this period, holy icons were restored around the 9th century and continued until the capture of Constantinople in 1204 AD.
At that time traditional cultural art forms such as architecture, music, poetry, and paintings were not considered "art." Instead, each form of artistic expression independently evolved while being bound by rigid parameters that were doctrinally liturgical of that period.
From this thinking, the belief during that time was to consider church art forms as liturgical art. Therefore, the art form or icon symbolizing the Greek Orthodox Church did not represent any art of a particular religion or nationality of people, but rather that of a symbolic communion with God.
