With the help of over 100 illustrations, many of them little known,
Martin Henig shows that the art produced in Britannia--particularly
in the golden age of Late Antiquity--rivals that of other provinces
and deserves comparison with the art of metropolitan Rome. The
originality and breadth of Henig's study is shown by its systematic
coverage, embracing both the major arts--stone and bronze statuary,
wall-painting and mosaics--and such applied arts as
jewelery-making, silversmithing, furniture design, figure pottery,
figurines and appliques. The author explains how the various
workshops were organized, the part played by patronage and the
changes that occurred in the fourth century.
