“Synthetic” compositions in Romanesque art and the first Gothic program of abbot Suger

Abstract

The article is about complex synthetic compositions in Christian art and influence of this development to the art program of abbot Suger to invent central portal of the Western facade of the Saint-Denis basilica. The author distinguishes different types of the synthetic compositions in the medieval French monumental art. He considers that complex synthetic composition of the central portal of the Western facade is the top point in the sequence of the synthetic programs impacted with Cluny abbey, as eminent transition from visionary Romanesque art to didactic clarity of Gothic portals.
