The Lesser And The Greater Light is a book written by John Louis Petit and originally published in 1869. The book is a detailed study of the architecture and symbolism of Christian churches, particularly focusing on the use of light and its significance in religious art and architecture. The author examines the various ways in which light is used in churches, from the natural light that filters through stained glass windows to the artificial light of candles and lamps. He explores the symbolism of light in Christian theology and how it is used to represent God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit. The book also includes numerous illustrations and photographs of churches and religious artwork from around the world, providing a visual guide to the concepts discussed in the text. Overall, The Lesser And The Greater Light is a fascinating exploration of the role of light in Christian art and architecture, and its significance in the spiritual life of believers.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
