Zusammenfassung: | The walrus-ivory Cloisters Cross, a masterpiece of English Romanesque art, has long been a centerpiece of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Cloisters collection, a separate museum in Fort Tryon Park (New York City) devoted exclusively to the art of the Middle Ages. In fact, ever since its acquisition in 1963, the cross has been the subject of speculation and mystery The dearth of solid information about its provenance prior to its ownership by a Yugoslav art dealer and restorer has generated a number of tantalizing theories as to its origin, function, and early history, although no one has denied the exceptional quality of its workmanship or the unparalleled complexity of its design The story of the cross's creation, survival, and meaning is explored in this fascinating book. Of special interest is the sheer number of figures that populate the compact scenes on both sides of the cross, and of biblical passages diligently inscribed on individual scrolls held by Old Testament prophets across its surface. The cross is a tour de force of sculptural artistry, which holds within its small physical scope an iconographic encyclopedia of learning almost unmatched in Medieval Art |

Ill. txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier The walrus-ivory Cloisters Cross, a masterpiece of English Romanesque art, has long been a centerpiece of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Cloisters collection, a separate museum in Fort Tryon Park (New York City) devoted exclusively to the art of the Middle Ages. In fact, ever since its acquisition in 1963, the cross has been the subject of speculation and mystery The dearth of solid information about its provenance prior to its ownership by a Yugoslav art dealer and restorer has generated a number of tantalizing theories as to its origin, function, and early history, although no one has denied the exceptional quality of its workmanship or the unparalleled complexity of its design The story of the cross's creation, survival, and meaning is explored in this fascinating book. Of special interest is the sheer number of figures that populate the compact scenes on both sides of the cross, and of biblical passages diligently inscribed on individual scrolls held by Old Testament prophets across its surface. The cross is a tour de force of sculptural artistry, which holds within its small physical scope an iconographic encyclopedia of learning almost unmatched in Medieval Art Cloisters (Museum) The Cloisters (DE-588)5075778-7 gnd rswk-swf Bury Saint Edmunds Cross (DE-588)4376669-9 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1000-1200 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 950-1250 gnd rswk-swf Bury Saint Edmunds Cross Christian art and symbolism England Medieval, 500-1500 Ivories, Romanesque England Kreuz (DE-588)4033065-5 gnd rswk-swf Liturgie (DE-588)4036050-7 gnd rswk-swf Ikonographie (DE-588)4026535-3 gnd rswk-swf Bildprogramm (DE-588)4006632-0 gnd rswk-swf Romanik (DE-588)4050482-7 gnd rswk-swf Elfenbein (DE-588)4014424-0 gnd rswk-swf Kunsthandwerk (DE-588)4073883-8 gnd rswk-swf Elfenbeinschnitzerei (DE-588)4152009-9 gnd rswk-swf Bury Saint Edmunds (DE-588)4080596-7 gnd rswk-swf England (DE-588)4014770-8 gnd rswk-swf Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 gnd rswk-swf England (DE-588)4014770-8 g Kreuz (DE-588)4033065-5 s Geschichte 950-1250 z DE-604 The Cloisters (DE-588)5075778-7 b Elfenbeinschnitzerei (DE-588)4152009-9 s Bury Saint Edmunds (DE-588)4080596-7 g Romanik (DE-588)4050482-7 s Großbritannien (DE-588)4022153-2 g Ikonographie (DE-588)4026535-3 s Bildprogramm (DE-588)4006632-0 s Kunsthandwerk (DE-588)4073883-8 s Elfenbein (DE-588)4014424-0 s Geschichte 1000-1200 z 1\p DE-604 Bury Saint Edmunds Cross (DE-588)4376669-9 u 2\p DE-604 Liturgie (DE-588)4036050-7 s 3\p DE-604 Little, Charles T.
