Art and Society in the Middle Ages by Georges Duby
In this beautifully written book, George's Duby, one of France's greatest medieval historians, returns to one of the central themes of his work - the relationship between art and society.
'Georges Duby was one of the leading medievalists of the twentieth century, a historian with a long-standing interest in artThis book compresses the knowledge of a lifetime into an elegant, lapidary essay packed with perceptive comments on both art and society, making it as indispensable for specialists as it is accessible to students and art-loving general readers.'
