European wall painting of the Romanesque and Gothic periods, covered the years c. 1000–1400, with a particular focus on England, Italy, France, and Germany. Wall painting or “mural decoration” had a long history in both religious and secular architecture: in secular buildings it descended from Roman domestic interiors, and in ecclesiastical settings mural painting had an uninterrupted history from early Christian churches and catacombs through the Renaissance.
