She specialises in the impact of ancient Rome on cultures, empires, and religions up to the present day. Her PhD explored the Abbasid visual language of power and the caliphs' relationship with Rome during the so-called “Golden Age” of Islam, offering new insights on the development of art and architecture in this pivotal period.
