Byzantine Architecture

Byzantine Period Lasts from 500 – 1453AD in the Eastern Christian world Constantine founded a new Roman capitol at Byzantium in 330AD and called it Constantinople. It is now called Istanbul, in modern-day Turkey. When Rome fell to the Barbarians in 476AD, Constantinople became the center of the surviving portion of the Roman Empire until it was captured by the Ottoman Turks in 1453AD. We will compare three buildings in this time period to see what makes the style Byzantine: San Vitale in Ravenna, the Hagia Sofia in Istanbul, and San Marco in Venice, Itay.
