Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Art Teaching of the Primitive Church: With an Index of Subjects, Historical and Emblematic One book or the other will generally be found accessible. Though these plates give no idea of the present appearance, or rather the gradual disappearance, of the buried frescoes, they may probably be accurate records of the subjects once represented. Cardinal Bosio´s integrity was equal to his enthusiasm, and he had no polemical motive in his work of re-discovery. It is therefore generally assumed in this book, that his authority is sufficient to prove that such and such subjects (of often uncertain date within the first eight centuries) have been found in Christian sepulchres, whether the latter were of greater antiquity than their decorations or not. For modern text-books on this subject, Alt´s "Heiligenbilder," and Martigny´s "Dictionnaire des Antiquites Chretiennes," will supply the reader with ample information, and open to him a vast range of reference for more extended study, which is sure to increase in interest, as the connection between early art, archaeology, and history is better understood.
