Concentrating on religious art from the years 845-1453 AD, this study examines the impact of several literary genres and rhetorical techniques on the visual arts of Byzantium. It explains how literary embellishments to sermons affected the iconography and style of artists' work.
In this interdisciplinary study, Henry Maguire examines the impact of several literary genres and rhetorical techniques on the visual arts of Byzantium. In particular, he shows that the literary embellishments of the sermons and hymns of the church nourished the imaginations of artists, and fundamentally affected the iconography, style and arrangement of their work. Using provocative material previously unfamiliar to art historians, he concentrates on religious art from AD 843 to 1453.
