The golden age of Irish art

"The Golden Age of Irish Art is the first serious assessment for a generation, during which time painstaking research has added a wealth of new information and fresh insight. Surveying the art of Ireland chronologically, the book is illustrated with over 200 photographs, many in colour, of illuminated manuscripts, metalwork, architecture and sculpture, making this the most lavish as well as the most authoritative survey of the subject available."--Jacket.
