In their ongoing search for divinity, Western European Christians
followed many different paths to a personal connection with the
eternal, including the intimacies of private prayer, the spectacle
of the Mass, and the veneration of saintly relics. Along the way,
art objects and artifacts served as companions, guides, and
comforts. The essays in this catalogue consider the central role
objects and images played in these spiritual journeys. They
investigate imagery's critical role in the development of personal
devotions, in the organization of liturgical worship, and in
practices surrounding the institution of the Eucharist and the cult
of saints.
