Description
Saints: A Year in Faith and Art by Rosa Giorgi is a richly illustrated volume that brings together more than 375 Catholic saints, each with its own unique story and image. The book is arranged by the days of the year on which each saint is honored, offering a fascinating glimpse into the lives of these revered figures.
From world-famous works of art to more modern and lesser-known depictions, the images in this collection are a true treasure trove of artistic excellence. Each saint is accompanied by a brief description, including etymology of names, historical background, and occupations, cities, and countries of patronage. This makes Saints: A Year in Faith and Art an ideal gift for confirmation or Christmas, as well as a fascinating read for scholars and art historians.
