Norman Sculpture and the Mediaeval Bestiaries is a book written by J. Romilly Allen that explores the connection between Norman sculpture and the bestiaries of the Middle Ages. The book delves into the symbolism and meaning behind the intricate carvings found on Norman churches and cathedrals, and how they relate to the depictions of animals in the bestiaries. Allen examines the influence of classical mythology and Christian symbolism on the art of the Normans, and how they incorporated these elements into their sculptural works. The book is a fascinating exploration of the intersection of art, religion, and culture in the Middle Ages, and is a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of medieval art and history.1885.
