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.
