The Gospels in art; the life of Christ, by great painters from Fra Angelico to Holman Hunt;
An anthology of religious painting edited by Walter Shaw Sparrow and published in London by Hodder in 1904, tracing the life of Christ through works from Fra Angelico to Holman Hunt for a general Edwardian reading public. The 265 halftone plates reproduce oil paintings in soft grey tones: robed crowds, interiors, nativity and Passion scenes, useful for draped figure groups and dark-toned backgrounds.
