2017.2.5Description
Painted on Christmas day in 1953, this work symbolizes spiritual communion through the reception of the Holy Eucharist. Roman visualizes spiritual communion as a light line, brightened at each end where it joins a communicant and a triangular Trinitarian symbol. The white triangle symbol, embedded in a cubist format, merges spiritual and physical presence in the same field. Cubist art often fused the real and the feigned as well as multiple veiws in the same plane.Artwork Details
