Constantinople & Marmara
4th–15th c. Byzantine core; records vary · 3 registered sources
Historical frame
Imperial-capital and Marmara/Nicaean context.
Production / use
Production evidence is strongest when museum records explicitly say Constantinople or probably Constantinople; monument profiles describe use in situ.
Movement / provenance
Movement is not inferred from capital association alone.
Political / ecclesiastical
Imperial, patriarchal, conciliar and court contexts are kept separate from workshop attribution.
Artistic relation
Capital prestige and comparison can be discussed without assigning every related work to a Constantinopolitan workshop.
Reception / adaptation
Later reception is connected only through explicit legacy/network records.
Uncertainty
Map position, proximity or visual similarity never creates a transmission edge. Follow the named source and explicit relationship records.
Geography is not transmission proofGeographic proximity, shared typology, or visual similarity does not establish influence, workshop movement, trade, or transmission direction.
Direct graph trails
Follow explicit geographic and transmission connections.
