 Rating: - The best and most profound Rose Windows.Painton Cowen's "The Rose Window" is a profound book that combines art history, mystical Christian thought, great beauty and sublime photographs. It is truly a work of art. It is a survey of rose windows: their origin, history, iconography, geometry and spiritual meaning. You will inevitably come away feeling uplifted and having made a significant discovery in your own inner life. I highly recommend the book in all ways. Rating: - The best and most profound Rose Windows.Painton Cowen's "Rose Windows" is by far the most elegant, profound and beautiful study of rose windows throughout Europe. His writing goes beyond mere art history and into the magical, cultural and spiritual qualities the windows transmit to anyone who has visited the great cathedrals. Cowen's photographs are simply astonishing in their variety and originality. The colours leap off the page and into one's mind and heart to the extent that one can actually feel in the spell of these magnificent windows into the soul. I can recommend without reservation this terrific book. It is a must in any library for its beauty and brains.
