The Light of the World - William Holman Hunt

British Art
W. H. Hunt (1827-1910)

Along with Millais, Hunt was one of the founders of the Pre-Raphalite art movement. Showing Christ in an English setting meant that this painting (1853) became perhaps the most famous painting, and certainly one of the most potent icons of the 19th century.

Marta,

I love your blog and with your permission will use some of your devotions to tell the kids at New Hope Kasana when I go on short term mission to Uganda in June.

Thank you for visiting my blog and for your kind comments!

Best regards,

Robin
