The listing, The Shape of Illusion Hardcover by Renowned Author William E. Barrett has ended.
This book, published in 1972, is well worn having been read by numerous people. It is a fascinating story about a painting that is the work of an obscure German artist. The scene shows Christ leaving the palace of Pontius Pilate under the guard of Roman soldiers forcing their way through a stone-throwing mob. There was no doubt that it was a true masterpiece of renaissance art. But for the four people who gathered to view it, the picture possessed a quality that was absolutely unique: As each of them looked upon it he found himself clearly depicted as one of the howling mob. The impact on these four people is unique to each one. Great read!
