Characterized by its use of vibrant colors, intricate patterns, and religious themes, this style is often seen in frescoes, mosaics, and panel paintings. Italo-Byzantine art emphasizes flatness, a lack of perspective, and stylized figures, reflecting both the spiritual nature of its subjects and the cultural exchange between the Byzantine Empire and Italy. Notable examples include works from artists like Duccio and Cimabue, who played a significant role in its development.
