SynopsisIn power more than a thousand years before its demise in 1453, the Byzantine Empire inherited the splendour and artistic tradition of the Roman Empire. This publication charts the rise and fall of the Empire and the art it produced., The magnificence of this cultures palaces, churches, paintings, enamels, ceramics, and mosaics are fully represented in the book, inviting the reader on a great journey through the ages. The extraordinary power of this tradition guaranteed its survival long after the dissolution of the empire that gave it life, and the art left behind by this civilisation never stops beckoning to us.
