Liturgical art

Liturgical art refers to the artistic expressions used in religious worship, primarily within Christianity. This includes various forms of visual art, such as paintings, sculptures, stained glass, and architecture, designed to enhance the spiritual experience of worship and convey religious themes. Liturgical art serves to beautify sacred spaces, reflect theological beliefs, and aid in the liturgy—guiding worshippers in prayer and contemplation. It often draws on biblical narratives and saints' lives, fostering a deeper understanding of faith and community within the context of worship.
