Reviews
The juxtaposition of objects and buildings offers striking comparisons that will surprise even specialists of medieval art and architecture. It is unlikely that a better survey text of this particular type will be produced in the next twenty years., Beautifully and profusely illustrated with full color images throughout, Art and Architecture of the Middle Ages is a fascinating and informative tour through the creative arts of Europe's 'Middle Ages"[.], This lavishly illustrated textbook provides a wonderful balance of different types of medieval art and architecture, We must thank the three authors for not being afraid to confront the difficulties of such an ambitious project. It will undoubtedly prove extremely useful to students of art history and history, as well as to teachers who wish to have a reference tool at their disposal.
