“The image references the
annunciation and the
advent of a very holy baby. For
models I used friends in
the contemporary setting of my
home to evoke the strangeness
of something miraculous
happening in a familiar setting.”
—Leah Samuelson ’02,
instructor of art

“This photograph was taken
inside the Hagia Sophia,
once a cathedral and now a
museum, in Istanbul, Turkey.
Written in Arabic, the text reads
‘Light of Life.’ In the many places
we visited on the Wheaton
in the Holy Lands program,
including the Hagia Sophia,
Christ, the light of life, was
always present.”
—Hannah Swanson ’16
