Description
"Art did not exist in Byzantium. As Glenn Peers explains in Sacred Shock, there were, instead, a variety of devotional objects - pectoral crosses, church mosaics, icons, and illuminated manuscripts - regarded as infused with divine presence and used in religious practices. What concerns Peers is the means by which the relationship between the divine and the human was made manifest through crafted, material objects."--Jacket.
