A very nice combination of scripture and beautiful artwork. Excellent for our Charlotte Mason studies.

We're using this for a picture study resource. It's perfect for that purpose. The beautifully reproduced masterworks are accompanied by the Biblical texts on which they're based. The kids love studying the paintings and speculating on what the artists were doing and saying. By reflecting on the texts in contrast to the pictures, the kids are able to pick out variations in the narrative and draw out surprising insights. We are having a lot of fun with this.
