The Legend of Christian Art Illustrated in the Statues of Salisbury Cathedral is a book written by Henry Thomas Armfield and published in 1869. The book explores the history and significance of the statues in Salisbury Cathedral, one of the most famous and important cathedrals in England. Armfield uses these statues to tell the story of Christian art and its development over the centuries. The book is divided into chapters, each of which focuses on a different group of statues in the cathedral. Armfield provides detailed descriptions of each statue, including its history, symbolism, and artistic style. He also provides historical context for each statue, explaining how it fits into the larger story of Christian art.Throughout the book, Armfield emphasizes the importance of art in the Christian tradition. He argues that Christian art is not just a form of decoration, but a way of expressing and communicating religious ideas and beliefs. He also emphasizes the role of the artist in this process, arguing that artists have a special responsibility to create works that are both beautiful and meaningful.The Legend of Christian Art Illustrated in the Statues of Salisbury Cathedral is a fascinating exploration of the history and meaning of Christian art. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of art, religion, or culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
