In medieval paintings can often see "space" objects

Let's say you decided to visit the Visoki Dečani Serbian. Goes along the walls, erected in 1330 yet, soak up the atmosphere, stop in front of the altar. Under the altar fresco plate - 1350 Year. But the fresco is clearly visible space object. How to explain it?

Eyeing more closely.





To the left of Jesus in the sky you can see something like a comet with a tail branched. On the one hand the object is transparent and can be distinguished within the small human figures. On the right is also something in the spirit of the works of the artists 'space age' of the 1960s - a round device with a tapered nose piece, and three cabin window contraption resembling support for a touchdown.





In other examples of medieval art can be detected disks emit light poles down, egg-shaped objects with wires sticking out of them ... The sky is the engraving by Hans Glaser (XVI century), and all swarming with mysterious tubes and ovals.





And yet, none of the above image does not seem to really exist today aircraft. But the resemblance to the spaceships born of the imagination of modern science fiction - is evident. Science fiction as we know, is important, not the accuracy of, and the picture that will look good. It is possible that the artists of the Middle Ages guided by similar considerations.

In addition, our medieval ancestors, like us, had to watch a comet in the sky, lights, explosions swamp gas - in other words, everything that today people with a good imagination can associate a visit to newcomers. Just in the Middle Ages, most likely, these phenomena have been interpreted differently - that's all the explanation.
