'Professor Glass has succeeded in writing the most important book on Italian Romanesque sculpture in decades. It is a brilliant study. She has done it with a superbly clear and spare style of writing, with effective visual analysis, and with supremely well informed argumentation based on the visual material and relevant textual sources. This is one of the most significant art history studies I have read on Italian medieval art.' Jaroslav Folda, University of North Carolina, USA 'This is an overtly polemical book, buttressed by substantial new evidence and persuasive arguments in support of its overarching hypothesis. It reframes a topic of great importance for European Romanesque, and no one interested in the field can afford to ignore it.' Burlington Magazine '... a nearly exhaustive review [...] providing a firmer basis for the posited link between contemporary events and the works of art... Recommended.' Choice
