This book focuses on apse mosaics in Rome commissioned by popes between the sixth and ninth centuries CE. Erik Thunø situates the apse mosaics within the context of viewership, the cult of relics, epigraphic tradition, and church ritual while engaging topics concerned with time, intercession, materiality, repetition, and vision.
