As the days get shorter and twilight comes earlier, we look at the life and work of one of the most renowned painters of German Romanticism: Caspar David Friedrich. His faith, fears, political views and hopes for a better future come together in poetic landscapes that leave you mesmerised by their beauty and stillness.
Rose Heslop and Irene Altares, art historians and parishioners of the York Oratory, deliver a series of talks on the relations between art and Christianity followed by discussion. Every session looks at a specific topic or artist to ask questions about art, beauty and faith.
The Barocci Group meets on the third Sunday of every month, 2.30 – 3.30, in the Upper Room of the Oratory Church. Check the York Oratory newsletter and website www.yorkoratory.com for details of upcoming talks.
