	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Ecclesiastical Art
		It seems constantly to be forgotten by those who discuss this subject that it was the deliberate object of the early Christians, during the ages of suspicion and persecution to exclude from their places of sepulture all that would by its conspicuousness or strangeness attract the notice of the casual pagan intruder.
		From A. 313 to the end of the fifth century was a period of transformation and development in Christian art, and it may be conspicuously recognized upon the walls of the Roman catacombs.
		It seems also possible that some of the early efforts of the art of the Christian Church are to be found in the decorations of gold on glass which have been discovered in the catacombs.

	ACAA - Is Christian Art Christian ? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		The fact that an artist claims to be Christian does not ensure that their art is "Christian" or vice versa.
		Christians have had their faith transformed by an icon or a crucifix but equally they can have their faith transformed by a Monet painting of a water lily or the mysterious smile of the Mona Lisa.
		Exception is made when we feature children's art or works by promising young people whom we wish to encourage in their journey of exploration to express their Christian faith through their art.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Christian Art
		"Christian art" is a term which, while it always applies to the fine arts and their creations only, is nevertheless used in more than one meaning which we must distinguish in this encyclopedia.
		In this sense, Christian art is also called ecclesiastical art, and we find it convenient to treat this subject under the title ECCLESIASTICAL ART.
		But Christian art is sometimes also used to denote the fine arts and their creations, in as much as they are in harmony with Christian ideals and principles.

	Christian Art and Religious Christian Paintings (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Christian art fills the memories of our childhood, whether it was the hallowed and holy Christian art that filled the stain glass windows in our churches, or the gentle Christian art that graced our first Bibles.
		Today, Christian art varies from the bold statement of historical art styles to the Christian art that is not readily identified as Christian art, but we are inspired by it through the witness of the artist.
		We hope to encourage you to take a longer look at the Christian art that has inspired mankind for years and the Christian art that continues to be made by talented artists who illustrate the Bible through their Christian art to bring us joy today.

		The Index has developed a life of its own over the last eighty-five years which has extended beyond the confines of its home in Princeton and is destined to have an even greater impact with the development of an electronic resource such as this.
		Despite the initial belief that all medieval art could be iconographically analyzed within fifteen years of the start of the project, it is a task which is not only still ongoing, but one which is thriving and ensures a prosperous future for the archive.
		Thanks must go to the many scholars who have generously given of their knowledge and experience into making this resource what it is today and to the new group of users who continually give of their research.

	Early Christian - Early Christian Art
		This is the art and architecture produced for the unsplited Christian church.
		Before the Edict of Milan (313), which made Christianity the Roman Empire's state religion, Christian art was restricted to the decoration of the hidden places of worship.
		The exteriors of Early Christian buildings were plain and unadorned and the interiors contrarily, were richly decorated with marble floors and wall slabs, frescoes, mosaics, metal works, hangings, and sumptuous altar furnishings in gold and silver.

	PBS - Islam: Empire of Faith - Culture - Art
		Examples of religious art range from beautifully calligraphied manuscripts of the Koran to intricately carved and inlaid pulpits or minbars, from which the Friday sermon is given in the mosque.
		Much of Islamic secular art, like religious art, is decorated only with geometric and vegetal patterns and inscriptions, but many objects, whether glazed ceramics, carved ivories, intricately woven silks, or luxurious carpets, are decorated with lively human and animal figures set individually or in scenes.
		Unlike much Christian art, which largely developed for the use of the Church, Islamic secular art has been characterized by the transformation of everyday objects, whether bowls for eating or carpets and cushions to sit on, into things of transcendent beauty.
