"With great elan, the author catalogs and interprets the arcane world of Christian visual art. She is so at ease with this history lesson that we are able to see it as a playful adventure -- hunting down the meanings in the miracles of Jesus, the Christian cross, angels, church doctors and saints, flowers and plants, trees and bushes, animals, sacred colors, the church year, objects and vessels, vestments and adornments, and much more." --Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat, Spirituality & Practice: Resources for Spiritual Journeys
