It also explores the theological and historical background of Christian imagery, from the devotional works of the Medieval and Renaissance periods, to the twenty-first century.\u003cbr\u003eWilliamson uses examples from, amongst others, Cimabue, Michelangelo, and Rosetti. She concludes by outlining the co-existence in contemporary 'post-Christian' culture of the deliberately controversial works of artists such as Andres Serrano and Chris Ofili, alongside the consciously devotional works of those such as Eric Gill and Peter Blake.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Beth Williamson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 019280328X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780192803283\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/09\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 132\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.88h x 4.38w x 0.34d","brand":"Beth Williamson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981478756607,"sku":"9780192803283","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_99128651-58b2-401c-aa59-72841931eaef.jpg?v=1683255818","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/christian-art-beth-williamson-9780192803283","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
