A critical biography of the most celebrated religious icon painter in
medieval Russia.
A monk from Moscow, Andrey Rublev (c.1360-c.1430) is heralded as the
greatest painter of religious icons and frescos in medieval Russia.
Nevertheless, his life remains largely mysterious to historians and
devotees alike. In this book, Robin Milner-Gulland provides the first
English-language account of the artist's life as a window into the world
of medieval Moscow. Beautifully illustrated with previously unpublished
images, Andrey Rublev offers an accessible introduction to the
artist's medieval world and his continuing significance today.
