Art of the Early Middle Ages

Rick Steves’ Europe Season 12 showcases Europe’s great art and architecture. © 2024 | After Rome’s fall, Europe’s Christians kept culture alive with art rooted in their deep faith. We visit sturdy Romanesque churches filled with art that reinforced the ruling order. Meanwhile, Europe was invigorated from the fringes: Byzantines to the East, with their dazzling mosaics; Spanish Muslims with their lush palaces; and fierce Vikings of the North — all part of Europe’s rich cultural stew. #ricksteveseurope #artofeurope #arthistory *Check out Rick Steves’ Europe travel resources:* • “Rick Steves’ Europe” public television series: • “Travel with Rick Steves” public radio program: • European tours: • Guidebooks: • Travel gear: • Travel classes: https://www.
