Framed Byzantine Art

Most of the artists from this time period were anonymous but, a few known are Limbourgh Brothers and Duccio. Framed byzantine replicas are often found in churches or Sunday schools because of their ties to religion. Pieces like “The Last Judgment”, “Virgin and Child”, and “Christ Blessing” are popular choices for such places. Works of religious nature can be found in many places and especially the homes of religious art lovers.

During the 13th and 14th centuries the way of byzantine art was still evident in the teachings of Sienese School of Painting and in International Gothic style painting. The actual idea of art began with the mosaic decorating of the domes and walls of churches. The art on the walls was so beautiful that it streamed to painting to give us the great art like “Nativity” and “The Crucifixion”.
