Description

Explore the history of the Hagia Sophia in Trebizond through this detailed academic study. Built by Emperor Manuel I Grand Komnenos between 1238 and 1263, this church stands as the finest surviving Byzantine imperial monument from its period following the fall of Constantinople. In Art and Identity in Thirteenth-Century Byzantium, Antony Eastmond provides the first major investigation of the site in over thirty years. This book offers a deep look at the architectural, sculptural, and painted decorations that define the monument. It serves as an essential resource for students and scholars of Byzantine and Ottoman studies, providing context for the Empire of Trebizond. The text is supported by extensive illustrations in both color and black-and-white. Many of the images included have never been published before, offering a fresh visual perspective on this significant religious building. This work helps readers understand the visual culture and identity of the thirteenth-century Byzantine world through its most important surviving structures.
