The Portraits of Moroni

DelanceyPlace


When I saw this email, I was amazed because I immediately thought of the Book of Mormon, where one of its characters is named Moroni.

The Mormons could have known of this painter of the Italian Rennaisance, They had no interest in Art of any kind.

The only portrait we have of the Founder of Mormonism, Joseph Smith, was by an unknown artist, who no doubt painted a flattering portrait, collected his money, and was never seen again.
