Good scholarly monograph on the magnificent twelfth century mosaics at Cefalu, Palermo and Monreale, dating from the period of Norman rule in Sicily but those at Monreale probably executed by Greek craftsmen from Constantinople. A small errata slip records that "owing to production delays this book was not published until 1950".
