Semantic annotation and querying is currently applied on a number of versatile disciplines, providing the added-value of such an approach and, consequently the need for more elaborate - either case-specific or generic - tools. In this context, we have developed a semantically-aware tool for the description and retrieval of Byzantine Artwork Information. Following the needs of the Ormylia Foundation - Art Diagnosis Centre for adding semantics to their legacy data, an ontology describing Byzantine artworks along with the interfaces for synchronization to and from the existing RDBMS have been developed. This ontology has been linked to a reasoning tool, while a dynamic interface for the automated creation of semantic queries in SPARQL was developed. Finally, all the appropriate interfaces were developed, in order to allow easy ontology manipulation, query results projection and restrictions creation. This paper presents an analytical overview of the work conducted, and the technologies that were examined.
