After an introduction of the historical background of the Christian art in Cappadocia the book deals with the architecture and paintings of the Karanlik Kilise, popularly known as the Dark Church, situated in the Goreme valley. The church and its paints date from mid-tenth century. The latter are known as the best-surviving examples of the late Byzantine art. In addition to the description of all of the major wall paintings the Byzantine painting tradition of the period has also been dealt with.
