Master Painter

More about the book

Warner E. Sallmann, the artist behind the iconic Head of Christ painting, remains largely unknown despite the widespread popularity of his work, with over five hundred million prints sold. His low profile in the art world stemmed from his disinterest in personal fame and lack of exhibitions, focusing instead on community engagements. Jack Lundbom advocates for greater recognition of Sallmann, emphasizing the need to acknowledge the man behind the celebrated artwork and his contributions to religious art.
