More than just a joy to behold, discover the profound truths of spiritual life with these Lent reflections inspired by famous, and some lesser-known, works of art.


From the Hokusai’s Great Wave to Rembrandt’s The Return of the Prodigal Son, these reflections draw from the emotions and spiritual truths behind the painting to give you lessons that will stay with you a lifetime.


Each of the days is based around a different theme. From joy to tranquility to courage to sacrifice - the messages from The Art of Lent are short meditations that are designed to leave you with questions of your own to think about, rather than a compendium of conceptions to espouse in certain occasions.


Looking at is is, and always has been, a deeply personal experience that these reflections encourage. They are the spark, the starting gun, the first step in meditating on deep spiritual qualities and truths.


So join with Sister Wendy on a visual journey through Lent, and see the season like never before.

This delightful book describes and interprets a series of paintings for each day of Lent.

Artists often address subjects that our culture seeks to avoid, and Sister Wendy's brilliant and perceptive reflections will help you to read these paintings with a more discerning eye, and encounter deeper levels of spiritual meaning than may at first appear.

    A supporting artistic commentary which could supplement an additional framework of appropriate biblical psalms and readings, giving an added dimension to daily meditation. An excellent book as part of a daily Lenten exercise.
