4 Byzantium com/2014/8/19/ /40-maps-thatexplain-the-roman-empire Byzantine refers to the city and region that later became Constantinople Despite speaking Greek, not Roman, The byzantines referred to themselves as Roman, and direct descendents to the Roman empire. Byzantine Empire adopted christianity as its official religion, and spread the faith throughout europe, parts of africa, the Balkans and Russia as Orthodox Christianity.
5 Byzantium com/2014/8/19/ /40-maps-thatexplain-the-roman-empire The fall of the Byzantine Empire in 1453 had an effect that started the renaissance in western Europe. Academics and Scholars who were in Constantinople fled west as the Ottoman Turks invaded and crushed the Byzantines.
6 Archangel Michael, right leaf of a diptych, early 6th century. The golden age of Byzantine art began with the leadership of Justinian in 537, and are few examples of art that survive prior to his reign that are Byzantine. Part of a diptych (two paneled artwork), Triptych (three paneled artwork) Inscription at top opens with Receive these gifts, The dedication is a reference to the orb of power held by michael offered to a byzantine emporer depicted on the missing diptych panel.
7 Winged archangels probably derived from winged nike figures of greek mythology. Natural representation is being ignored, the feet rest of three steps simultaneously and the archangel dwarfs the surrounding architecture, The Byzantines adopt a more abstract anti naturalistic style in representation.
8 Vienna Dioskorides One of the oldest surviving, secular medieval manuscripts. Greek physician named Dioskorides created an encyclopedia of medicinal herbs called de materia medica The Vienna Dioskorides was a 6th century ce copy of this greek manuscript Contains 498 illustrations of images of plants in scientific illustration
9 Vienna Dioskorides One page, cant be a copy, it was the dedication page, featuring a portrait of Anicia Juliana in an 8 pointed star and circle frame. Anicia Juliana was a princess in the Justinian family dynasty She is enthroned between personifications of Magnanimity (generosity) and Prudence. Kneeling figure of gratitude at her feet The shading and modeling of the figures, the heads seen at oblique angles
10 Vienna Dioskorides The shading and modeling of the figures, the heads seen at oblique angles, and the use of personifications- the act of representing a non human thing, an ideal as human.. like using people to describe prudence or magnanimity. These are all ingredients of Byzantine art.
11 Justinian as world conqueror, (Barberini Ivory), mid sixth century. Justinianic art, was both religious and secular. Barberini Ivory was once part of the 17th century collection of Cardinal Francesco Barberini in Rome. Carved and pieced together in 5 parts, (right panel is lost) At center is Justinian riding on a rearing horse, as a barbarian is startled behind him Twisting postures, are familiar Byzantine Mofiffs.

12 Anthemius of Tralles and Isidorus of Miletus. (a theoretical mathematician and a physicist, not architects.) Hagia Sophia, Constantinople (Istanbul,Turkey) CE Justinian began work on this project after a fire destroyed the old church during the Nika riots January 532. Justinian place these people to work. Combines both a central and basilica plan church by use of Pendentives.
13 Hagia Sofia s dimensions are gigantic considering the structure is not made from steel reinforcement. 270 feet long and 240 feet tall The first dome collapsed in 558 with an earthquake and was built taller to distribute the weight better throughout the structure Use of light flooding into the interior space creates a mystical quality, and the initial lack of figuration (iconoclasm), a uneasiness about breaking the 2nd commandment, spatial light and geometry were used to create a sense of divinity.
14 Top of the dome has 40 windows piercing its base, light flooding in hides architectural components that create a sense that the dome is levitating
15 Pendentives To achieve this solution to placing a dome on a square base, also creating the sense of the dome levitating, pendentives were used and developed. In a pendentive, a dome is placed on top of a second larger dome, forming 4 curved triangles. This allowed architects to fuse two plans basillica and central plan buildings into a new style of building.
16
17 Byzantine Architecture allowed for buildings to be flooded with light, thru stained glass, creating a tremendous spectacle that spread the religion across europe and russia. Russia employed Byzantine influences in its use of Eastern Orthodoxy.
