Ethiopia has often attracted attention because of its unique
position as an ancient Christian culture far into Africa. Many
people have been fascinated by the brilliant colours and childlike
directness of traditional Ethiopian art. Little attention has been
given, however, to the great art periods the culture has witnessed
in the past. The fifteenth century saw a magnificent flowering of
painting in the highlands of central and northern Ethiopia D in
paintings on panel and above all in manuscripts. This book features
an unparallelled collection of Ethiopian Christian artefacts,
mostly fifteenth-century manuscripts and icons and metalwork but
also some work from the two succeeding centuries."
