Notes

Description
"Sister Wendy Beckett is one of the best-known art historians in the world today. In Joy Lasts she explores her reactions to a painting that she finds uniquely compelling: a haunting Crucifixion by El Greco. Her deep response to this painting leads her to examine the very nature of religious and spiritual art, which, Sister Wendy argues, are not at all the same things"--Page 2 of cover.
