5.0 out of 5 starsA highly readable scholarly work on the theology behind renaissance depictions of the crucifixion
By John B Chambers on June 18, 2014
Format: Hardcover
I recommend this book for readers interested either in theology or in renaissance art. Professor Viladesau gives art historians detailed explanations of the theology that informed renaissance artists when they depicted Christ's passion. His citations of the original works are a handy reference. For theologians, he has a discerning eye of the art itself.

To keep costs down, the reproductions are in black and white. Readers will find themselves consulting suggested web sites to see the art enlarged and in color.
