Early Europe and Colonial Americas

200-1750 C.E.



​Medieval artistic traditions include late antique, early Christian, Byzantine, Islamic, migratory, Carolingian*, Romanesque, and Gothic, named for their principal culture, religion, government, and/or artistic style.
Continuities and exchanges between coexisting
traditions in medieval Europe are evident in shared artistic forms, functions, and techniques.
Contextual information comes primarily from literary, theological, and governmental (both secular and religious) records, which
vary in quantity according to period and geographical region, and to a lesser extent from archaeological excavations.
Elite religious and court cultures throughout the Middle Ages prioritized the study of theology, music, literary and poetic invention,
and in the Islamic world, scientific and mathematical theory.
Cultural and artistic exchanges were facilitated through trade and conquest.
