An Iconography of Western Religions (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780244953065)

"Offering a great wealth of photographic material, "An Iconography of Western Religions" by Pietro Gaietto reconstructs the origins and iconographic evolution of Western religious images. He has researched the origins and evolution of Paleolithic art which, Gaietto affirms, is the foundation from which Western religious images have evolved. Gaietto's careful reconstruction allows you to appreciate over time the constant stylistic evolution -- that is, the deformation of images which from time to time has produced a new type of beauty. The thrust of the book concerns three-dimensional art and the evolution of Western religions.
