Nigel Morgan est un historien de l'art distingué, spécialisé dans les manuscrits médiévaux et les vitraux du XIIIe au XVe siècle. Ses recherches explorent les manuscrits enluminés et liturgiques, se concentrant sur leur iconographie, leur liturgie et l'interaction entre le texte et l'image dans l'art dévotionnel de la fin du Moyen Âge. Morgan offre également des perspectives approfondies sur l'art scandinave, y compris la peinture sur panneau et la sculpture sur bois des XIIIe et XIVe siècles. Ses contributions académiques fournissent de précieuses perspectives pour la compréhension et l'interprétation des œuvres d'art médiévales.
Forty colour plates illustrate some of the finest achievements of medieval painting.
