Late Antique Portraits and Early Christian Icons: The Power of the Painted Gaze - Routledge Research in Art and Religion

This book focuses on the earliest surviving Christian icons, dated to the sixth and seventh centuries, which resemble three other well-established genres of ‘sacred portrait’ also produced during late antiquity, namely Roman imperial portraiture, Greco-Egyptian funerary portraiture and panel-paintings depicting non-Christian deities.
