Original bdg. HC. Oblong large 8vo. (23 x 23 cm). In English. 72 p., color ills. "This volume brings together some of the most important surviving mosaic panels in Istanbul from the Great Palace, Istanbul Archaeological Museums, Hagia Sophia, the Virgin Pammakaristos and St Saviour in Chora. Except for the few panels brought from elsewhere and now kept in the Istanbul Archaeological Museums, all of these mosaics were made in Istanbul, known then as Constantinople. Chronologically, the earliest of these mosaics is from the late Roman period and the latest from the early fourteenth century. Even if they are far from giving the development of the art of mosaic in the capital of the Byzantine Empire these pavements reflect the importance that was afforded to this art.".
