Visual Piety: A History and Theory of Popular Religious Images
David Morgan
A study of devotional images that traces their historical links to important strains of American culture. It demonstrates how popular visual images - from Warner Sallman's 'Head of Christ' to velvet renditions of DaVinci's 'Last Supper' to illustrations on prayer cards - have assumed central roles in contemporary American lives and communities.
