Contest includes: introduction Symbolism, as it relates to religious art, has too long been of an esoteri nature, reflecting the nineteenth century thinking when symbols were regarded as based on immutable canons of archeological fantasy. Even in the recent past, symbolism has been shrouded in the resending fog of Victorian pomposity, which had kept religious art and architecture from developing along normal lines and symbolism from expressing any content of values. Senseless copy and frozen allusion reduced symbolism to a dead parody of that riche imagery to be found in the old and the new testaments. It is ironic to reflect on the paradox that the moment religious art become and archeological pastime the teaching of the middle ages, and much, much more.This book has illustrations in black and white color.
