Byzantium & Early Russia, "The Walters Art Museum holds one of the leading collections of Byzantine Art in the United States."

"The Byzantine Collection, which encompasses the imperial, ecclesiastical, and secular realms, is one of the finest collections of portable, sumptuous objects in the world. Selected objects are on display in the Byzantine Gallery and Courtyard Gallery."

"VMFA’s collection of Ancient Mediterranean Art spans more than 5,000 years of human history, from Pre-Dynastic Egypt in the 4th millennium BC through the fall of the Byzantine Empire in AD 1453."

"The Art Institute’s department of Arts of the Ancient Mediterranean and Byzantium (AAMB) showcases the early development of Western art from the dawn of the third millennium BCE to the time of the Byzantine Empire."
