SummaryWhile monumental figure erecting was hindered during the Middle Ages, illuminated manuscripts and mural paintings were given momentum as a result. Both media allowed for mass productions, many of which have lasted to this day. A fine example of a mural fresco from the Romanesque Period, originally located in a Spanish Chapel, Santa Maria de Mur, is the Christ in Majesty of the twelfth century (Kleiner and Mamiya, 350). A product of the Romanesque time period, the piece is representational of wondrous Christian icons used to persuade and consequently control entire societies.
