Piltz, Elisabeth From Constantine the Great to Kandinsky (1407301047)
This monograph looks at Byzantine art in its widest sense as well as its influence right up to the 20th century. It is well illustrated with a largely descriptive text. The chapters are divided by genre of art - mosaic, architecture, sculpture etc, with seperate chapters on the influence of Byzantine art in the Baltic and Russia, as well as in later centuries. The range of the study is a real strength and the parallels it draws are illuminating.
