art through its 8 centuries of existence.
Many pieces of important Carmelite
art, such as stained glass windows at Boppard-am-Rhein, Germany, are already in the
world’s great museums. In our virtual museum, we will show you some of the art
that is still located in its original sites, often in churches or monasteries of
