An illuminating look at the iconography of the early church and its important place in the history of Christian art In this book, historian André Grabar demonstrates how early Christian iconography assimilated contemporary imagery of the time. Grabar looks at the most characteristic examples of paleo-Christian iconography, dwelling on their nature, form, and content. He explores the limits of originality in such art, its debt to figurative art, and the broader cultural climate in the Roman Empire, drawing a distinction between expressive images—that is, genuine works of art—and informative ones. Throughout, Grabar establishes the importance of imperial iconography in the development of Christian portraits and sheds light on the role they played alongside other forms of Christian piety in their day.

No archaeological investigation is begun or successfully terminated in Princeton University which has not been inspired and made possible by the wisdom and kindness of Professor Allan Marquand. From the day when the present work was commenced, through the years of compilation and writing, Professor Morey has done all in his power to make it of scholarly value, and in the last stage of preparation, the author’s absence from the University has increased his obligation to his colleagues, for Professors Marquand and Morey have read all the proof and attended to every detail of the publication. For the aid here acknowledged and for that which no words can acknowledge, the author now voices his gratitude to these two friends. Aeterna Press
