From the book Canones: The Art of Harmony

  • Ewa Balicka-Witakowska

Abstract

The essay is on Carl Nordenfalk, Swedish art historian, medievalist and museologist. The objective is to present his internationally acknowledged professional life and elucidate the circumstances which led him to write his celebrated doctoral dissertation, ‘Die spätantiken Kanontafeln’. This pioneering work contributed immensely to scholarship on the history of the medieval book and is still recognised for its long-lasting scholarly value.
