This lovely book pairs full-color reproductions of some of Rembrandt's most powerful religious paintings with finely crafted poems reflecting on them, prompting readers in turn to ponder the spiritual themes behind the Dutch master's famous artworks.
Marilyn Chandler McEntyre, a gifted poet and art viewer, further enhances the religious facet of Rembrandt's work by focusing on its interpretive, evocative, and devotional dimensions. Some of her poems take readers imaginatively into what might have been the painter's process of reflections. A gorgeous gift book, Drawn to the Light is for lovers of art and poetry, for people of any faith tradition or none at all.
