The Cotton Genesis in situ: An Early Christian Manuscript Cycle on the Walls of a Thirteenth-Century Venetian Church

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

What was the source of the magnificent thirteenth century decorations in the atrium of San Marco in Venice, and how does it bear on their meaning? Based on this question, Herbert L. Kessler examines the relationship between the iconography of the thirteenth-century mosaics of the atrium in San Marco in Venice, and the fifth-century illustrated manuscript of Cotton Genesis (used as the formal and iconographic model for the atrium's mosaics). The elaborate analysis also reveals how much the atrium copied the Old Testament cycle from the Cotton Genesis and where the mosaics radically transformed, completed and expanded this model. The final part of the text describes the function of these mosaics, reasons for selecting the particular scenes of Old Testament and their coherent meaning for citizens and public space of Venice.
