Doamna şi Icoana. Nagy Márta şi arta post-bizantină din Ungaria
The Lady and the Icon. Nagy Márta and the Post- Byzantine Art of Hungary

Summary/Abstract: Referring to a books to be dealt with in due time, the title wishes to grasp and present in a nutshell, both formally and metaphorically, the subject and the object of our statement. The Lady comes first, an eminent researcher, an academic, and the measure of human kindness; then the Icon, the most sacred image of all, a genuine prototype of the Divine, an object of devotion, and the measure of artistry. Bearing in mind that the two may come together in any time and place, one should define them: what Lady and which Icon are meant here? In order to grant them a certain identity, one needs to mention a name and identify an artistic, ethnical, and confessional category. The name is that of Márta Nagy, an associate professor at Debrecen University, a Byzantinologist and art historian.
