The term of Roman art distinguishes, in art history, the period between about 950 and about 1250 AD. This era shows a great diversity of regional styles, architects, and artists which were all specific in their own way. In architecture as well as in sculpture, the Roman art is marked by raw forms. By its rich iconography and through a captivating text, this work rediscovers this art from the middle ages often despised today still in comparison to Gothic art which succeeded thereafter.

This Parkstone Press volume is a beautiful treasure trove of color photography showing interiors and exteriors of the great new stone churches which marked the revival of economic life in the Middle Ages.
