"The Master's Hand," a Once-in-a-Lifetime Exhibit of Carl Bloch Altar Paintings

It's been years in the making, but Dawn Pheysey, Curator of
Religious Art for the BYU Museum of Art, can still hardly believe
they are all displayed here together for the first time in
history; five of the eight huge Carl Bloch masterpieces which
have graced churches across Denmark and Sweden for over a hundred
years.

In this walk-through of the exhibit we'll hear the history of the
pieces, learn about the other Bloch paintings and etchings in the
show which have been beloved by Latter-day Saints for half a
century, and try to answer the question Danish priests have asked
for years, "What is it the Utah Mormons see in these paintings?"
 

That's this week on The Cricket and Seagull...
