Tevdore was a medieval Georgian religious mural and fresco painter active in the Kingdom of Georgia, at the royal court of King David IV "the Builder". He is best known for his frescoes of four temples in Upper Svaneti, northwestern Georgia. His late works are characterized by the rich decor, dynamic drawing and an accentuated three-dimensional concept of figure composition. Tevdore officially bore the title "King’s Painter", referring to his prestige and his association with royal authority, during a remarkable time in the history of Georgia, serving under an all-powerful ruler who greatly expanded the monarchy after his victories over the Seljuks.
