Description

'A brilliant foundation for parish and small group discussions, both during Advent and throughout the year.'
The Most Revd and Rt Hon. Dr John Sentamu

Illustrated in full colour with nearly forty famous and lesser-known masterpieces of Western art, this beautiful book will lead you into a deeply prayerful response to all that these paintings convey to the discerning eye.

This beautiful book describes and interprets a series of paintings for each day of Advent.

Artists often address subjects our culture seeks to avoid, and Jane Williams' brilliant and perceptive reflections will help you to read these paintings with a more discerning eye, and discover deeper levels of meaning than may at first appear.
