This book offers the first comprehensive study of Byzantine
influence on the art and iconography of East Central Europe. Petr
Balcarek focuses on the Byzantine cultural and religious legacy in
the Czech lands, thereby bringing to light rarely seen images and
presenting fresh hypotheses based on newly-explored theological
interpretations and historical evidence. Including a discussion of
the Czech and Slovak historiography on Byzantine studies, the work
analyses significant artistic and iconographical artefacts in light
of the intricate historical and political relationships that shaped
Byzantine presence in these territories, comparing them with
similar objects from other areas of Byzantine influence in order to
draw wide-reaching conclusions.
