Behind the Image: Understanding the Old Testament in Medieval Art - Cultural Interactions: Studies in the Relationship between the Arts New edition
Judith A. Kidd
Scenes and characters from the Old Testament appear frequently in Western medieval art, yet the study of their significance is a neglected area of iconography. This interdisciplinary study of art history and theology takes a thematic approach to the ways in which the medieval Church drew on these ancient texts.
