Legends of the Monastic orders as presented in fine arts

Numéro d'article 10176609

This volume, forming the second series of “Sacred and Legendary Art,” presents detailed studies of the legends associated with various monastic orders and key Christian saints as depicted in the fine arts. Mrs. Jameson examines the symbolic and artistic representation of these legends in paintings, sculpture, and church decorations throughout history, offering insight into how religious narratives have been visualized by artists and interpreted by the faithful. The work reflects a Victorian-era scholarly interest in Christian iconography and the cultural significance of sacred themes in artistic expression.
