Series Overview

Seeing the Eucharist explores the mystery of the Eucharist through art across centuries—from illuminated manuscripts and Renaissance painting to the beloved images of Norman Rockwell. Dr. Felicity Harley-McGowan and the Rev. Mark Brown guide participants in discovering how visual art deepens sacramental life.

Today’s Topic, “Now Thank We All Our God”. Eucharistia: Giving Thanks at All Times and in All Places, is based on the image Freedom from Want, also known as The Thanksgiving Picture, by Norman Rockwell.
