Popis How to represent God was a crucial question in the early Middle Ages. While the idea that the face of Christ could be depicted was accepted, alternative versions emerged over the centuries. Following an initial phase with devotional images oscillating between mimetic and schematic, aniconic images appeared more prevalently. Aniconic ornamentum then became one of the most effective ways to give a tangible dimension to the invisible god.
