In this extensively illustrated book, Rose Walker reconsiders Spanish and Portuguese art and architecture from the time of the Romans to the turn of the eleventh century. Challenging earlier overviews, Walker highlights the artistic unities shared by Christians and Muslims that culminated in the later tenth century and went on to inform aspects of Romanesque art. The book draws together an exceptionally diverse range of academic studies, including work previously familiar only to Hispanophone audiences.

A survey of Spanish and Portuguese art and architecture from the time of the Roman conquest to the turn of the eleventh century.
In this extensively illustrated book, Rose Walker reconsiders Spanish and Portuguese art and architecture from the time of the Romans to the turn of the eleventh century. Challenging earlier overviews, Walker highlights the artistic unities shared by Christians and Muslims that culminated in the later tenth century and went on to inform aspects of Romanesque art. The book draws together an exceptionally diverse range of academic studies, including work previously familiar only to Hispanophone audiences. By breaking down the chronological, regional, and disciplinary divides that have limited scholarship on the subject for decades, this volume enriches the wider English-language literature on early medieval art.
