Descripción
Refers to the Middle Byzantine style and period surrounding the Comneni dynasty (1081-1204) in the eastern Roman Empire. The style is driven by a desire to restore the grandeur of the Empire after the First Crusade, and is particularly characterized by the construction of monasteries and enormous dwellings for the Comneni clan.
