For more than eleven centuries, Christian civilization was dominated in the East by the imperial city of Constantinople, and a deeply religious conception of the universe Is reflected in Byzantine art. Whether he was designing some great architectural monument like the cathedral of Saint Sophia, or the smallest enamel reliquary cross, or an article for secular use, the Byzantine artist wrestled with colour and harmony to interpret divine beauty to humanity. In this liberally iòòustrated study, Sir Steven Runciman draws on his profound knowledge of the period to show how early Christina acquired this belief in the purpose of art and how it survived changes in technique, fashion and resources for as long as the Empire stood.
