Painting in Istifanos Monastery

Ethiopian art is the manifestation in art of the Ethiopian civilization, an African Christian [1] civilization that developed for millennia in relative isolation (since VII century the expansion of Islam separated it from the rest of Christianity ). The main artistic expressions have been architecture, painting and goldsmithing. There is also a range of traditions in textiles, many with woven geometric decoration, although many types are also usually plain. [2]
