Glory of Byzantium: Arts and Culture of the Middle Byzantine Era, A.D.…

The print companion to "the first exhibition to focus exclusively on the Second Gold Age--the critically important medieval era-- of the Byzantine Empire.... [the work] presents similar insights into the art and culture of [this] era through the assembly of a remarkable number of works of the highest artist and cultural standards" (from the preface) This catalog is a rich collection of art and commentary on many mediums used in this period. I highly recommended for artists. ( )
