"I feel like the author was a little careless with words. He states some things as a fact when historians are still undecided on things. Enjoyable read, but seems a bit inaccurate.For example in chapter 1 he says that historians pretty much agree that Michelangelo was a homosexual. As someone who has studied Michelangelo at length, that statement surprised me that it was said as if it was a fact. As a Christian understanding the weight and implications of that statement it would have been more wise for him to say some historians believe he was a homosexual, however, there is conflicting information on this. In Michelangelo’s later life there is a possibility he even became a Christian through the influence of Vittoria Colonna who was involved in the work of the reformation. Michelangelo’s own words and poetry suggest a humility and dependence on God which was not there earlier in his life. You can even see this reflected in his sculpture Nicodemus where he inserts himself into the piece of work.Again, an enjoyable read, but not necessarily as careful with words as it should be."

I love this book for several reasons. Ramsey really makes the artist and the art work come alive. It is not bogged down with heavy and academic art terms or art critique. He makes the case in very down to earth clarity that creativity and beauty are part of being human. Not being a church goer I was worried that this book may take a heavy evangelical perspective but I think he navigated his Christian beliefs and the story of art beautifully. At times I think he forced some of his points through his Christian lens but I accepted his points and even found them to have truth in them. I also learned some really profound Christian teachings that finally made sense to me. Above all, his words are thoughtful and encouraging and teaches us that beauty is all around us, it is there to see and enjoy even and most especially when experiencing hardship.oakandoats

Goodness. Truth. Beauty. This book not only discusses these three attributes, it embodies them. I am in awe of how a book could teach me so much about art and yet also emotionally connect with my soul. I grew in my knowledge of art history AND my relationship with the Lord. This book is truly incredible. I read this as part of a book club and each one of us was surprisingly touched by this book. I love each chapter for different reasons, but there is something about Rembrandt’s that sticks with me. I have been inspired to hang up more estate sale art on my walls, booked a tour at the Denver Art Museum, ordered a picture study from A Humble Place for our homeschool, discovered the Lillias Trotter Legacy website and the Many Beautiful Things movie, and started writing a series of poems inspired by Rembrandt (although they are nowhere as good as his masterpieces!) Overall, this book was a perfect read for this season in my life and a wonderful way to start a new year of reading!“By painting himself into the boat in The Storm on the Sea of Galilee, Rembrandt wants us to know that he believes his life will either be lost in a sea of chaos or preserved by the Son of God. Those are his only two options. And by peering through the storm and out of the frame to us, he asks if we are not in the same boat.” p.74“The disciple’s question reverberates down through the ages – does God care about our perishing? Jesus came treading on our roughest seas, speaking peace into the gale. And he will do it again. His triumph over the grave calls those who are perishing to be born again into a new and living hope. The peace he has brought by his resurrection is neither myth nor fantasy. It is an inheritance that will never perish, kept for those who believe, world without end. His is a Kingdom that will live. But it is the only one of its kind. If The Storm on the Sea of Galilee still exists, Rembrandt, in all his glory, is tucked away in some closet, attic, or vault, hidden from the world. He is still clutching that rope, still trying to keep his hat from flying off his head. And he is looking out into our world for anyone who will make eye contact.” p.85tea

Incredibly interesting and well written with detailed art history. I found it so moving and inspiring that although I originally began reading it from library, I had to purchase my own copy so I could underline (lightly with a pencil haha) and make notes in the margins.charles h rosa
