Space, Image, Light
Sunlight has long been harnessed to define and accentuate sacred space. This study explores several light phenomena carefully observed in the late fifteenth-century church of the Holy Cross at the former Pătrăuţi Monastery in Moldavia (modern Romania), arguing that the edifice was designed and decorated relative to the direction of sunlight on important dates throughout the liturgical year. While such use of natural light has been observed in oth…
Light, Vision(s), Transformation. Experiencing Baptism in Canopied Fonts (ca. 230-ca. 500 CE)
This article considers the ways in which the presence of canopies over baptismal fonts influenced the perception of the ritual experience and space.
