Sinossi

This book explores the complex relationship between Christianity and visual representation from the early church period to the Byzantine era. The author examines how the Church's evolving stance towards imagery shaped its artistic expression, from the symbolic and commemorative use of images in the catacombs to the monumental mosaics of Ravenna. Through a detailed analysis of Christian symbols, the author sheds light on the theological, historical, and cultural contexts that influenced the development of Christian art, offering fresh insights into its role as a powerful tool for religious instruction and devotion.
