El final del Imperio romano se ve transformado política y económicamente (y por tanto artísticamente) por el cristianismo y las invasiones bárbaras. Es una época de decadencia, sin duda, pero también original en muchos sentidos, como se puede comprobar en esta colección que presentamos actualmente.

La estructura medieval europea mantuvo durante varios siglos el régimen socioeconómico conocido por “feudalismo”, que consiste en la fragmentación de los territorios bajo el poder de un conjunto de nobles que ostentan todo el poder civil, militar y económico sobre sus límites. Sobre esta estructura feudal flota la monarquía que encontrará su verdadero puesto varios siglos después.
