| Synopsis: |
Through magnificent works of art from The National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, this companion volume to "A Renaissance Christmas" offers an evocation of Christ's last days on Earth. The events attributed to the Lenten season have been favourite subjects for painters and patrons alike for centuries. Narratives from the Bible and Christian tradition present opportunities and challenges which have been accepted by the greatest of artists. Among the works included in the book are El Greco's "Christ Cleansing the Temple", an engraving by Duerer of the Last Supper, and Corregio's "Salvador Mundi". The story of Christ's Passion is told in the words of the King James Bible as well as the verse of poets such as Edmund Spenser, George Herbert and Gerard Manley Hopkins. |
