I was looking at this webpage: http://www.overstockart.com/mipa.html and I was wondering how would you define Medieval paintings?

During the Middle Ages, European artists painted in a way that emphasized religious images and symbolism rather than realism. Most paintings depicted scenes holy figures and people important in the Christian religion. Even the most talented painters of the Middle Ages paid little attention to making humans and animals look lifelike, creating natural looking landscapes, or creating a sense of depth and space in their paintings.

Well those paintings are not Medieval, more of a pastiche of Picasso and the Middle Ages.
I see they are on sale prices. I guess if it floats your boat you might buy one.
I wouldn't.
