Description: This beautiful volume shows how the women of the Bible have been variously portrayed in art and literature throughout the centuries. Besides the biblical texts themselves, exquisite art reproductions, extra-biblical writings, and first-rate historical commentary provide a sweeping survey of how biblical heroines have been depicted by artists and writers from the ancient, medieval, and modern periods. This splendid, large-format book is an artistic and literary treasure. This is especially helpful for those who have been lead to believe that women in Judeo-Christian tradition were always, and still should be, minimized.
