New Views of the Middle Ages by Kathryn Gerry
Why does medieval art matter today? This beautifully illustrated book will examine this question through the lens of the magnificent objects in the Wyvern Collection of Medieval and Early Renaissance art, accompanying the collection's first exhibition in the United States. Works include exquisite examples of metalwork, stone and wood sculpture, and illuminated manuscripts from across Europe, as well as the Christian community of Ethiopia. Offering new photography and complementary text, this book will be an essential resource for one of the world's most important private collections of medieval art, and a fascinating read for all interested in the Middle Ages and the role of art history in exploring our world.
Kathryn Gerry is Visiting Assistant Professor of Medieval Art History at Bowdoin College, Brunswick, Maine. Dr Gerry has taught and written widely on the art and architecture of medieval Europe.
