The Art of Lent: A Painting a Day from Ash Wednesday to Easter

Review\n"For those who want to appreciate the spirituality behind some of the world's greatest works of art, this book will be hugely inspiring―not only during Lent but at any time of the year." -- Janina Ramirez, art historian and broadcaster\nThis delightful book describes and interprets a series of forty full-color paintings for each day of Lent. Artists often address subjects that our culture seeks to avoid, and the brilliant and perceptive reflections from nun and art historian Sister Wendy Beckett will help you to read these paintings with a more discerning eye and encounter deeper levels of spiritual meaning than may at first appear.
