Iconographer and wall-painter, founder of the Bansko Art School.
He grew up in the family of Vishan priest (monk named - Visarion). About 1770 he went to Austro-Hungary where he studied painting. They call it Molera (from German word Maler), and hence the name of the entire family Molerovi. Under the influence of European art, he painted his images in a new way, unknown until then in Bulgarian religious art. Creates works in which the figures are realistic - full of movement, vitality and light. These features are found in his frescoes at the Rila Monastery - in the altar part of the church "St. Luka" (1798) and in the church" Pokrov Bogorodichen" (1811), as well as in the home of "St. Luke". During the second period of his work he creates more traditional works, especially in icon painting.
