Book Reviews of The Quiet Eye: A Way of Looking At Pictures
Book Review: The most beautiful book
Summary: 5 Stars
This small book is so beautiful that it passes into the word "sacred." It doesn't do it justice to describe it briefly as a small book with photos of works of art (painting, sculpture, etc) on one side of the page, and a small quote from scripture or poetry, etc on the facing page. Each pair of art/quote is placed before us so that it may be a portal to meditation and conversation with God. In a way, it is an experiential course in lectio divina. This book is presented from a Quaker perspective, but is, of course, relevant to all Christian (and, really, other) faiths. A collection of this sort could easily have been banal; this one is not. It is a very deep and beautiful collection. I highly recommend it to anyone. It also makes a great gift.
Summary of The Quiet Eye: A Way of Looking At Pictures
When one enters this beautiful book from the cluttered streets of everyday life, one is fed by the artist's eye, the poet's voice, and the insight of the mystics. --Anne Morrow LindberghArt History Books
