Dazzling mosaic pictures made of glittering shards
of light-reflecting coloured glass embellish Rome's
oldest churches and tell an enduring story of
beauty, faith, and artistry across a thousand years.
This book brings these little-known masterpieces
to life while exploring their meaning, historical
context and spiritual power.
Through brilliant full-colour photographs with lavish
details, Wendy A. Stein presents twelve ensembles
of mosaic preserved in nine churches. The subjects
reveal their glory as their imagery is decoded, telling
the story of an ideal Rome whose power was derived
from both its imperial past and its Christian legacy.
Together, the mosaics embody the interpretation of
light as an expression of the divine. With a detailed
map to easily locate the churches, this volume is a
perfect travel companion.
