(all published). - Interest in byzantine art came alive towards the end of the 19th century. Taken widely this meant art of the period between classical times and the renaissance. The works of the Finnish art historian J.J. Tikkanen, written in German, can be set within the continuing framework of this interest. By his thorough knowledge of oriental miniature art, both popular and aristocratic, the author was able to determine the particular western-carolingian character of the renowned Utrecht Psalter. The importance of these studies remains undiminished to this day.
