About This Book

"The book is a groundbreaking and monumental reconstruction of the twelfth-century choir of St. Servatius Minster in Maastricht, based on its scholarly decoration program, comprising an altar, reliquary shrine, wall and vault paintings as well as other elements. 0It elucidates how all key political and ecclesiastic themes of the twelfth century come together in the choir: the conflict between pope and emperor; various notions of earthly power and heavenly order; and the anticipated end of days of the Sacred History." -- publisher's description.
