Scenes and characters from the Old Testament appear frequently in Western medieval art, yet the study of their significance is a neglected area of iconography. This interdisciplinary study of art history and theology takes a thematic approach to the ways in which the medieval Church drew on these ancient texts.

Judith A. Kidd read Theology at King's College London and, after a Goldsmith's Company scholarship to study religious art in French and Spanish Catalonia, pursued her interest in iconography with a research degree in the Art History department of Bristol University. She subsequently taught at Wycombe Abbey and North London Collegiate and has published articles combining the two areas of theology and art history.
