Byzance, Les Slaves et L’Occident
Etudes sur l'art paleochretien et medieval
by Tania Velmans
Sixteen studies by Velmans, a pupil of Andre Grabar, focusing on Byzantine art and its influence on Slavic lands. Themes include the Fountain of Life, Akathistos cycle, and Byzantine-derived subjects in Western Europe, iconographic developments, Western influence on Byzantine and Slavic art, and topics related to drawings and bookbinding.
A pupil of Andre Grabar, Tania Velmans has worked for over thirty years on the art of the Byzantine empire and its wider diffusion throughout the neighbouring Slavic lands. This volume makes available sixteen of the author’s studies divided into four sections. The first examines the development of such themes as the Fountain of Life and the Akathistos cycle in Byzantium, and their radiation throughout the Slavic world, and looks at other Byzantine-derived subjects in the art of Western Europe. The second group of studies looks at iconographic developments within the Byzantine Empire. A third section looks at later Western influence on Byzantine and medieval Slav art. The final section deals with drawings and bookbinding.
