The paper is dedicated to the origin of the fresco paintings in the Annunciation Church of the Theotokos Monastery in Supra?l (Poland). The results of previous studies were presented. A description of the original layout of the frescoes was necessary to determine iconographic solutions that suggest the painters? place of origin. In this context, the paper proposes the Balkan or Serbian origin of the style of the frescoes in Supra?l and some of their iconographic motifs and scenes.
