Journey
of Faith: Art & History from the Vatican Collections
From the first centuries of the Christian era, pilgrims have traveled
over great distances to sites where the glory of God revealed
itself or where the signs of His benevolence were disclosed by
angels and saints. In this catalogue, readers will be able to
discover, with the help of the superb collections from the Vatican,
the importance of Rome as a place of pilgrimage. Traditionally
, the three most important pilgrimage destinations were the Holy
Land, Rome and Santiago de Compostella in northest Spain. Journey
of Faith: Art & History from the Vatican Collections is published
in conjunction with the exhibition of the same name at the Asian
Civilisations Museum, Singapore and represents only the second
time that such a comprehensive selection of artefacts has traveled
from the Vatican to Asia. |
