The magnificent religious and secular objects created in Byzantium had a profound impact on neighboring Christian and Islamic states and on the Latin West. In this volume more than 50 contributing scholars explore not only the works of Byzantium proper but also those from beyond its borders, providing new insights into the cultures of Eastern Europe.
The essays are accompanied by stunning full-color reproductions of more than 400 objects as well as photographs of architectural sites and comparative illustrations.
667 illustrations, 542 in full color, map, 9 x 12"
