Excellent overview of Reformation era art and its meaning,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Images and Relics: Theological Perceptions and Visual Images in Sixteenth-Century Europe (Oxford Studies in Historical Theology) (Hardcover)
This is precisely the book I've been waiting for, for years. There are many books available on the general subject of the art of Northern Germany, but this book "gets it." It understands that during the Lutheran Reformation, it was not "art for arts sake" but art for the sake of the meaning of the Reformation.If you are interested in the theological meaning and relevancy of the art of the times to the Reformation themes of the time, you'll enjoy this book very much. |
