LECTURE 2 "East and West Embrace in Norman-Arab Sicily"
1h 16m
This lecture will look in-depth at the glittering wall mosaics of Cefalu Cathedral, the Palatine Chapel in Palermo, and the Cathedral in Monreale. Thanks to extensive inscriptions, we can read the intentions and ambitions of Sicily’s first Norman kings as they brought together cultural traditions from across the Mediterranean.
