Book Description
Jesus is one of the most commonly portrayed figures of all time in the artistic community. But what can all of his varying faces—coming from so many different ages and diverse countries around the world—tell us about him as a person? In this beautiful book, images of Jesus are used to explore his life and legacy, including Jesus as shepherd, Jesus as victor, Jesus as broken, and many more. With illuminating text and arresting images, this book is visually stunning and textually inspiring—the perfect gift for anyone with an interest in fine art, spirituality, or both.

Book Description
Charles Dickens's other Christmas classic, with a new introduction by Dickens's great-great-grandson, Gerald Charles Dickens. Charles Dickens wrote The Life of Our Lord during the years 1846-1849, just about the time he was completing David Copperfield. In this charming, simple retelling of the life of Jesus Christ, adapted from the Gospel of St. Luke, Dickens hoped to teach his young children about religion and faith. Since he wrote it exclusively for his children, Dickens refused to allow publication. For eighty-five years the manuscript was guarded as a precious family secret, and it was handed down from one relative to the next. When Dickens died in 1870, it was left to his sister-in-law, Georgina Hogarth. From there it fell to Dickens's son, Sir Henry Fielding Dickens, with the admonition that it should not be published while any child of Dickens lived. Just before the 1933 holidays, Sir Henry, then the only living child of Dickens, died, leaving his father's manuscript to his wife and children. He also bequeathed to them the right to make the decision to publish The Life of Our Lord. By majority vote, Sir Henry's widow and children decided to publish the book in London. In 1934, Simon & Schuster published the first American edition, which became one of the year's biggest bestsellers.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Life of Our Lord in Art: With Some Account of the Artistic Treatment of the Life of St. John the Baptist The life of Our Lord is the grandest subject in sacred art, the culminating point of interest of all study in this direction. The present book is the natural outgrowth of the writer's editorial work upon the revision of Mrs. Jameson's "Sacred and Legendary Art." It was a cause of great regret to all admirers of Mrs. Jameson, that upon her death in 1860, the crowning work of her series, which was to take up the history of Our Lord, was still so far from completion. She had made ready no material on the most important of all Christian subjects. Our Lord's Passion; and on various other incidents in his life, her collected notes were quite insufficient. In this lack of material from the favorite author's own hand, and with almost inexhaustible stores of art information made available by recent investigation, there has for some years been a very apparent need for the work which the present writer has attempted. The book is intended to be a brief descriptive history of the art illustrating the incidents in the historic life of Christ. A few connected incidents from the life of St. John the Baptist are also included in due course. All symbolical and allegorical Christ art and the history of Christ portraiture are entirely omitted as lying outside a theme quite sufficient in itself for a single volume. The subjects are arranged not according to the group system which has sometimes been adopted, but in the chronological order approved in accepted Harmonies, Robinson being the leading authority.
