"Backlit heaven" offers an intriguing insight into the spiritual and material culture of religious life in la Flandre profonde from 1559 onwards. The book unveils many never-before exhibited items of ecclesiastical splendour and popular devotion, selected from a rich heritage that remains largely hidden away in parishes and institutions. The six essays in this book approach this Flemish religious heritage from an anthropological and an art-historical perspective, inviting readers to open themselves to the religious inspiration which formerly characterized our western culture.
