First published in 1954 and having gone through several editions, this comprehensive book remains the authoritative source in the field. This paperback edition includes all of the 350 illustrations from the original edition, as well as the complete and unabridged text. Divided into fourteen chapters, text and illustrations reveal the symbolism inherent in representations of religious personages, the Earth and Sky, animals, birds, insects and flowers. In addition to a discussion of objects treated symbolically in Christian art, Ferguson explores Old Testament characters and events and their symbolic representation in art. - Back cover.
