Image on the Edge

The Margins of Medieval Art

Michael Camille

Explore the scandalous and subversive world of medieval marginal art with Michael Camille's Image on the Edge. Discover the lascivious ape, pot-bellied heads, and arse-kissing priests that adorned the edges of buildings and manuscripts. Camille presents the idea that marginal art was a resistance to social constraints, focusing on society's underside with peasants, servants, prostitutes, and beggars. Let Camille bring you into a world of amazing and impudent art that will leave you amazed.
