This volume describes how the cycles of the lives of Jesus, the Virgin Mary, and the saints provided a framework for everyday life and art. More than 450 images and artifacts, located in churches throughout Wales, are reproduced in full color, revealing a startling richness of imagery surviving in Wales from the Middle Ages."--Publisher description UR - http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0659/2005440572-b.html ER -
