Church Symbolism (Hardcover)

1938. An explanation of the more important symbols of the Old and New Testaments, the primitive, the medieval and the modern church.

The author has added a number of Jewish symbols as well as those commonly used in Catholic and non-Catholic churches to make the book more complete. Gorgeously illustrated with 39 pen drawings and 72 halftone illustrations.
