Sister Wendy's Odyssey:A Journey of Artistic Discovery
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
Once again, I am so very pleased with Sister Wendy's delightful selections for this book. I am especially taken by Guercino's "The Woman taken in Adultery"
From the fullness of her spirit. . .

In this book, as well as her other books, Sr. Wendy gives us a glimpse into the soul of a contemplative. I use this book for periods of quiet meditation.
An exquisite book of beautiful perception

On the right side of the book: works of art you would probably pass in a museum without a second thoughtOn the left side of the book: parsimonious, at times humorous, always educational and thought provoking interpretations of those works of art .. never exceeding a page of interpretation for a page of the work of artOne is thus hard pressed to differentiate one work of art from another. The gestalt is just gorgeous and a real treasure.
