Romanesque Mural Painting
This book is by far the most comprehensive and fully documented study in English of Romanesque mural painting. In ten chapters Professor Demus discusses the complex interaction of “Byzantine” and “Western” elements within the Romanesque style, and the connections between mural painting and manuscript illumination. By analyzing the artists' techniques and the iconographic schemes which they executed, he traces the paths taken by Romanesque artists across the map of Europe. Includes sections devoted specifically to Italy, France, Spain, England, Germany and Austria. Profusely illustrated with spectacular tipped-in color plates.
