Title : L'iconografia mariana nei secoli XI-XII [The cult of the Virgin Mary was adopted by ruling elites, lay and clerical, in the eleventh and twelfth centuries. Seated figures of the Madonna, facing the viewer with the infant Jesus on her lap, predominated with their expressions of the superiority of spiritual power. These derived from Byzantine models, and less formal poses were evolved only later. Title note supplied by Feminae.].
