Event Details
Have you ever stood before a statue in a Cathedral and tried to guess its identity? Have you wandered aimlessly through churches, overwhelmed by the imagery and left frustrated? Join Dr. Lorrie Wenzel, church historian and noted expert in biblical imagery in sacred space as she discusses the Biblical Figures in Cathedrals around the world. A great tool for any traveler, this presentation will unlock the artistic clues the great painters, sculptors, and glassmakers provided to identify important biblical characters and early Christian saints. Its purpose is to guide visitors globally through any cathedral and enable recognition of saints and martyrs in works of art.
