Book relates the long and interesting relationship between the Papacy and art throughout the centuries. The works of art in the exhibit, of which this book is a catalog, and a study guide, will speak of history, of the human condition in its universal challenge, and of the endeavors of the human spirit to attain the beauty to which it is attracted. Beautiful color photos, excellent detail, seldom seen works which are part of the Vatican Collection.
