Magnificant work! The art work is exceptionally well done.,
By A Customer
This review is from: A Sculptor's Testimony in Bronze and Stone: The Sacred Sculpture of Avard T. Fairbanks (Hardcover)
The contents of this book depict the love and devotion of the members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints as they endured trials and tragedies during the early years of the Church's organization (mid 1800's to mid 1900's). The descriptions given about each piece of artwork are clear and concise. Avard T. Fairbanks was truly a professional in his time. His artwork is thought provoking and provides the reader with a clear insight as to the devotion and hardships the Mormons had to endure. Truly an amazing compilation of sculpture.
