That is true to form because Basil of Cappadocia, the man in the center, was himself a most colorful, complex character during the 4th century AD. In this lecture we will examine him in dialogue with how his life story is told by the icon. Saints and Sinners in Great Art Join Timken Docent and USD Professor of Biblical Studies (ret.)
