The Gennadius Library offers online access to several bibliographical resources. It is the only institution in Greece to offer access to the Index of Christian Art from Princeton University.
The ICA in collaboration with the École Pratique des Hautes Études in the Sorbonne have recently digitized and catalogued part of the photographic holdings of the Gabriel Millet Collection and are now making it available on the internet for the first time. The collection of some 100,000 images is an unrivalled source for the study of the Christian and Byzantine art of the Balkans and the Near East. The range of the material assembled by Millet and his successors is truly impressive and covers works of art from ninth-century Western Europe to fifteenth-century Greece. In addition to the Byzantine material which dominates the archive, the database also showcases images from the Early Christian, Carolingian and later periods.
The digitized archive consists of some 10,000 slides of manuscript illuminations, prints, and glass plate images. The database includes material as diverse as the bronze doors from the cathedral of St. Andrea in Amalfi to floor mosaics from Antioch. A number of the images are in black and white but the majority are in color. Enjoy your navigation at The Gennadius Library
