What is The art of the West in the Middle Ages about?
The present work is more than a history of Western medieval art: it is an aesthetic exploration into the development of medieval style, particularly as it is expressed itself in architecture and architectural decoration. The illustrations which accompany the text are designed to provide a visual complement to the author's instructive analyses and stimulating ideas. -- From publisher's description
