In March, I mentioned a book by Long Island artist Robert Cariola called, SHROUD:art images. I also stated that I could not find a review of the book anywhere on the Internet. At $82.00 for the hardback edition and $72.00 for the paperback, I was not about the buy the book sight unseen.
Now I have heard from Martha Horman, who wrote a comment on this blog:
I have seen the book and it is wonderful. It’s chuck full of high quality color plates of his work inspired by the Turin Shroud.
So, now, maybe I’ll put it on a hint list for Fathers’ Day or my birthday. You may visit the authors blog at www.RobertCariola.com SHROUD:art images. From his blog:
Roberts’ new book, SHROUD:art images is now available at Xlibris.com, and soon at Amazon.com and Borders.com, pending a deal with the 2 internet book giants.
The Shroud – an ancient imprint on linen cloth believed to be the face of Christ, fascinating Christians and men for centuries. Its rich religious and cultural history has sparked inspiration in Robert Cariola as well.
Behold SHROUD: art images, a showcase of the superb outcomes of that inspiration.
Comprised of Roberts images and passages from the Bible, Robert has put together a collection depicting the face of Jesus Christ and the Shroud of Turin.
Thanks, Martha. See Robert Cariola’s Book “SHROUD:art images” « Shroud of Turin Blog
