Christianity in Asia : Sacred Art and Visual Splendour, Hardback Book

Christianity in Asia : Sacred Art and Visual Splendour Hardback

Hardback

Description

Christianity in Asia explores the spread of the religion across Asia, and the art it inspired.

This fully illustrated catalogue is aimed at a general audience, and accompanies the first exhibition exclusively dedicated to this topic.

The book shows how local artists interpreted well-established Christian iconography, with new materials, and in often surprising ways.

Essays explore earliest Christian art in Central Asia, India, and China; interest in Christian art at the Islamic courts; and works associated with missionary activities in China, South and Southeast Asia, and Japan.
