Description

On the basis of texts, wall-paintings and book-illuminations, this study offers the reader a survey into the liturgical and monastic dress of the Coptic, Nubian, Syrian and Armenian Churches. The starting-point of the investigation is the liturgical vestments in Nubian wall-painting, but eventually an image of the influences and differences in ecclesiastical dress between the several Eastern Churches appears.
