Kimbell Art Museum is giving Fort Worth art lovers exclusive opportunities to view rare holy jewels and historic photographs during two exhibitions next year.
The Fort Worth museum is one of two North American venues shining light on more than 60 silver, gold and bejeweled objects gifted by the Holy Roman Emperors in Vienna and the monarchs of Portugal, Spain, France and Naples to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem.
The Church of the Holy Sepulcher — built on what is believed to be the site of Jesus of Nazareth’s death, burial and resurrection — has been a site of Christian devotion for nearly two thousand years. The church’s treasures have been used in religious ceremonies for centuries, according to the Kimbell.
