In art history, the term ‘Romanesque art’ distinguishes the period between the beginning of the 11th and the end of the 12th century. This era showed a great diversity of regional schools each with their own unique style. In architecture as well as in sculpture, Romanesque art is marked by raw forms. Through its rich iconography and captivating text, this work reclaims the importance of this art which is today often overshadowed by the later Gothic style.

What is Romanesque? The art and culture of Europe between 1050 and 1200 have traditionally been viewed as meager and impoverished. Now a new book takes a fresh look at this period and reveals a world of unexpected beauty. Accomplished, ornate sculpture, intricate goldwork and enamel, brilliant manuscript illumination, dazzling mosaic and glass characterize the art of the so-called "Dark Ages." Andreas Petzold examines medieval European art in the broader context of its relationship to the art of Byzantium and Islam, tracing the influences among these cultures through trade and the Crusades. He views Romanesque art in terms of the social structures that organized the medieval world -- church, princely court, peasant society -- discovering on the way the important role of women as artists and patrons, the complex relationships among religious and secular institutions, and the ways that sculpture, architecture, painting, and other art forms developed in style and technique to express a world no longer Classical but not yet Gothic. Petzold reveals a culture that is rich and varied, sophisticated and refined. Splendid illustrations of architecture, metal-work, stained glass, painting, and textiles reveal that the art of Romanesque Europe is anything but dark. Book jacket.

Meyer Schapiro (1904-96), renowned for his critical essays on 19th and 20th century painting, also played a decisive role as a young scholar in defining the style of art and architecture known as Romanesque. This is a transcribed and edited version of his Charles Eliot Norton Lectures.
