About this book

African Zion: The Sacred Art of Ethiopia by Stuart C. Munro-Hay. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780300059151.

The art of highland Christian Ethiopia - with its icon paintings on wood, metal processional crosses, gold coins, and manuscripts - is largely unknown in the West. This book presents a survey of this art from the 4th to the 18th centuries, and addresses the function of art within Ethiopian society.
