Description

Explore the origins of sacred imagery with Late Antique Portraits and Early Christian Icons: The Power of the Painted Gaze. Part of the Routledge Research in Art and Religion series, this work examines the earliest surviving Christian icons from the sixth and seventh centuries. Andrew Paterson investigates how these early religious images relate to other established genres of the period. The text compares Christian devotional portraiture to Roman imperial portraiture, Graeco-Egyptian funerary portraiture, and panel paintings of non-Christian deities. By studying these connections, the book addresses how artists in late antiquity visualized and constructed images of divine and sanctified figures. This scholarly resource provides a deep look into the visual language of the late antique period. It is an essential text for students and researchers interested in the development of religious art and the historical context of early Christian iconography.
