Video Lecture: Early Christian Art

AOA NEWS



UNITED KINGDOM - The earliest surviving Christian art is in the catacombs in Rome according to art historian & theologian, Rt. Rev. Lord Richard Harries. This month, Gresham College made available a video and transcript of an October 2010 lecture by Lord Harries entitled "The First Christian Art and its Early Developments." Available today on YouTube and at the college's website, the lecture examines how the art developed, survived two centuries of iconoclasm and established itself with a distinctive rationale. The transcript and downloadable versions of the lecture are available from the Gresham College website.
