Summary
"Byzantium in Eastern European Visual Culture in the Late Middle Ages, edited by Maria Alessia Rossi and Alice Isabella Sullivan, engages with issues of cultural contact and patronage, as well as the transformation and appropriation of Byzantine artistic, theological, and political models, alongside local traditions, across Eastern Europe. Eastern Europe has been treated in scholarship within limited frameworks or excluded altogether from conversations. This volume instead encourages different readings of the artistic landscapes of Eastern Europe during the late medieval period, highlighting the cultural and artistic production of individual centers. These ought to be considered individually and as part of a larger network, thus revealing their shared heritage and indebtedness to artistic models adopted from elsewhere, and especially from Byzantium"--
