The volume is divided into two sections; the first on Late Antique art includes: The story of Joseph on a Coptic textile; Notes on Coptic sculpture; Studies on late antique and Byzantine floor mosaics, including examples in Antioch and Bethlehem; The Cleveland marbles; Christian imagery and many more. The second section on Byzantine art includes: The Hellenistic heritage in Byzantine art; Byzantium and the West in the second half of the 12th century; The role of miniature painting in mural decoration; Artistic patronage in early Byzantium, and others.
Ernst Kitzinger was Arthur Kingsley Porter University Professor of the History of Art at Harvard, and one of the foremost interpreters of the art of Late Antiquity, Byzantium and the medieval West.
