The Book of Mormon paintings of Minerva Teichert Reviews

  I have definitely inherited my mom's love of Minerva Teichert's paintings. I wish more of her paintings were part of the usual ones shown during lessons at church. This book contains some absolute beauties. I particularly like that she is not influenced at all by the Arnold Friberg paintings, which are unrealistic flights of imagination, focusing instead on real world architecture and culture to depict stories that we don't often dwell on in Sunday School (Morianton's maidservant, for example).

  Tiechert left the LDS church an incredible legacy with these paintings. I've had this book on my shelf for years, but rediscovered it when sorting my books recently (thanks Marie Kondo). The timing was perfect. I'm teaching the Book of Mormon this year in Primary. I make it a point to bring this book to expose my class to alternative images to the stories of the BofM. Like last week, I showed the usual Abinadi before king Noah, then Tiechert's version. Needless to say Tiechert is my preferred version.

  I adore Minerva Teichert, so I loved reading her background and thoughts as she completed her Book of Mormon murals. Gorgeous, gorgeous paintings packed full of interesting meanings.
