Songs of Glory: Medieval Art from 900 to 1500

Songs of Glory is an exhibition that is deeply concerned with values of the faith that dominated European culture during the Middle Ages. Vibrant devotion sings out through ivory carvings, stained glass, and gothic arches. Statues and illuminated manuscripts reflect the hope for an orderly society. This humanities exhibition features works by unknown artists from 900 to 1500 A.D., who dedicated their talents to glorifying their religious faith.

Based on an original exhibition organized by the Oklahoma Museum of Art.
