Synopsis
A beautifully illustrated, new edition of the best single-volume guide to Byzantine art, providing an introduction to the whole period and range of styles., The opulence of Byzantine art, with its extravagant use of gold and silver, is well known. Highly skilled artists created powerful representations reflecting and promoting this society and its values in icons, illuminated manuscripts, and mosaics and wallpaintings placed in domed churches and public buildings. This complete introduction to the whole period and range of Byzantine art combines immense breadth with interesting historical detail. Robin Cormack overturns the myth that Byzantine art remained constant from the inauguration of Constantinople, its artistic centre, in the year 330 until the fall of the city to the Ottomans in 1453. He shows how the many political and religious upheavals of this period produced a wide range of styles and developments in art. This updated, colour edition includes new discoveries, a revised bibliography, and, in a new epilogue, a rethinking of Byzantine art for the present day., The opulence of Byzantine art, with its extravagant use of gold and silver, is well known.

- 4***4 (17)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseGreat item, great condition, best price I could find. Shipping (I am sure it had nothing to do with the seller, a lot of mailing companies seem to be having issues lately) was quite awful, this was the first out of 3 items I ordered, and it got here maybe 11-13? Days after I ordered it, when it was supposed to be here within 2-5 days. Just saying. UPS was the postal service used. Thank you for the item though, packaged nicely even.The Ancient Hebrew Lexicon of the Bible (#167128748487)
