Sacred Art of Lavrans Nielsen

Lavrans Nielsen was a Trappist monk for 20 years with the abbey at Gethsemani (1957-1976).

His artistic creations range through a great variety of media: fro oil painting to woodcuts and linoleum blocks; from calligraphy to liturgical banners and icons.

A late interest was painting large, light-colored abstractions in a multi-layered, three-dimensional format.

His work displays a keen sensitivity to religion, culture, and art.
