Abstract

"This book contains a collection of papers that focuses on the way patrons, pagan as well as Christian, conveyed messages through material and visual culture and on the reception by the viewers. The contributions investigate how patrons of luxurious buildings, elaborate grave monuments, and churches used architecture, images, and inscriptions to demonstrate political, social, and religious power. The visual arts were a strong factor in communicating identity and attitudes both in the public and private spheres also in Late Antiquity"--Page 4 of cover.

Abstract

L'ouverture de neuf salles consacrées à l'Orient romain et à l'Égypte romaine et copte est l'occasion de réunir en un seul lieu des oeuvres jusque-là dispersées dans les collections de trois départements : Antiquités orientales, Antiquités égyptiennes, et Antiquités grecques, étrusques et romaines.
Reflet de cette nouvelle présentation, conçue selon un parcours à la fois géographique, chronologique et thématique, l'ouvrage retrace l'émergence d'une civilisation fondée sur le double héritage de la Grèce et de Rome, replaçant avec cohérence près de 400 oeuvres dans leur véritable contexte.
