Download or read book Every Tongue Should Confess that Jesus Christ is Lord written by Günter Paulus Schiemenz and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-07-02 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of three papers. The first chapter deals with the fate of the sinners in the Last Judgment on Russian icons and in Orthodox wall painting. In the second chapter, the role of the inscription bands encircling the illustration of Ps 148, 1(-2) is explored. Many of these bands begin with the final verse of the psalter, Ps 150, 6. The role of this verse in the illustration of the laud psalms is investigated in the last chapter in which the miniature of Ps 150 in the Carolingian Stuttgart psalter is scrutinized. It emerges that all three chapters share a common thread: Both the Last Judgment composition and the laud psalms illustration serve as tools to convey the very essence of the Christian faith: That Jesus Christ is the Lord.

Download or read book Treasures Into Tractors written by Anne Odom and published by Hillwood Museum & Gardens. This book was released on 2009 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sixteen scholars from Russia, Vienna, and the United States explore the fate of Russian art collections and libraries following the Russian Revolution in 1917, the institutions and individuals responsible for their sale, and the prominent collectors, libraries, and museums that acquired them. Unlike the widely publicized controversy surrounding Soviet-Nazi war loot and its restitution, the sales of the interwar period are not well known outside a small scholarly community. This volume reveals the extent of the Soviet government's voluntary ?realization? of Russia's cultural patrimony between 1918 and 1938 and its consequences for both the international art market and the perception of Russian art. The imperial Easter eggs by Fabergé and Old-Master paintings purchased by Andrew Mellon from the State Hermitage and now in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. are the most celebrated works that changed hands. Equally significant are the bibliographic rarities from imperial libraries, icons and liturgical art from churches and monasteries, and antiques, furnishings and fine art from estates, palaces, and private homes.
