Religious Art in France of the Thirteenth Century

Editorial Reviews Book Description From divine creation to the lives of the saints, the stone sculpture and stained glass windows of medieval cathedrals provide dramatic illustrations of Christian doctrine. This classic by a noted art historian focuses on French cathedrals of the 13th century as the apotheosis of the medieval style. Topics include iconography, bestiaries, illustrated calendars, the gospels, secular history, and many other aspects. "The most illuminating, the most informing, and the most penetrating book on the subject"—Bernard Berenson. 190 black-and-white illus.
