The Faces of God: 1000 Images in Art

by RebeccaHind (Author)

Synopsis

Faces of God is a lavish collection of religious art, spanning thousands of years and covering all of the world's major religious traditions - from disciplines such as Christianity, Islam, Buddhism and Judaism to alternative faiths such as Paganism, Zoroastrianism and Baha'i. Whether a religion allows for representation of God in human form or eschews depiction of God for abstract interpretation of the deity, this book gives the reader the background to these beliefs and provides them with their own personal collection of the best religious art ever produced.
