BYU in Utah is all abuzz over their new art exhibit and rightly so. Carl Bloch's paintings are considered national treasures in Denmark. Many of these originals will be in Utah for six months. On this sabbath day enjoy learning about Carl Bloch and how he painted the Savior. You may recall that the special Ensign on Jesus Christ featured a Bloch painting on the cover.
