    Book Description:
    A new single volume edition of Mayr-Harting's seminal study, that looks at the origins, motivations and impact of a unique phase of German art within its historical context. The first part examines the major illuminated manuscripts which reflect religious thought, ritual and devotional attitudes and exemplify artistic expression of the time. The second studies the culture of the Ottonian court and especially the Emperor Otto III, through the manuscripts, and considers patronage and artistic centres of the period. 'The most comprehensive and important study on Ottonian Illumination to appear in English' - Early Medieval Europe.
