With illustrations from paintings of the Renaissance.
Popular edition: complete and unabridged.
Beautifully illustrated from paintings by outstanding Renaissance artists, the text explains simply and clearly the meaning of signs and symbols. A universal language which grew out of Christian man's experience, it reached its fullness in Christian symbolism and we see its outward and visible expression in the great religious art of the Renaissance.
