Roman art, German art, and Islamic art mixed together in the Early Middle Ages to create a new form, which we call medieval art. Medieval art is usually divided into several different kinds, each of which were expressed differently in different countries, and which even happened at different times in different places as well.

First is Late Antique art, where some people made art in a more or less Roman style, so people would know they were Roman Christians, while other people were making consciously German art, so people would know they were Germans and Arians. In Spain and Constantinople, Late Antique art lasted until the Arab conquest of Spain in 700 and the iconoclast controversy in the 700s AD. In France, it lasted longer, until the end of the Merovingians around 800 AD. In England and Germany, still later, until about 1000 AD. In Italy, where people were proud of their Roman heritage, they kept making Late Antique art until about 900 AD.
