Cosmatesque Ornament: Flat Polychrome Geometric Patterns in Architecture

This unique study of the distinctive colorful geometric mosaics created in hundreds of late medieval buildings in Rome and environs (and such far-flung locations as Westminster Abbey) by a group of artisans called the Cosmati is a treasure trove of information and pattern for art and architectural historians and designers in every medium.

This book is both beautiful and informative on virtually every aspect of Cosmatesque Ornament. It discusses the artistic and material sources of Cosmati opus sectile, its history and development, its use in church floors, screens, columns, etc., and the geometric foundations and design methods. There are, it is true, a few dark or fuzzy photographs, but the photography in general is very good and the abundance of photographs adds to the wealth of information this book presents. 

Additionally, the publisher hired a book designer who did an outstanding job of designing the this book, making the book itself a pleasure to look at, and to read.
