Grandin's Press #2

 There were several original paintings on the 3rd floor of the Grandin Press.  These are the 3 by C.C.A. Christensen.  We lived in the house he designed for his son when we lived in Ephraim.  Most all of the Christensen family had been born in that house. 
 I think that the paintings are self-explanatory - at least if you know your Book of Mormon.  The other thing we found out is that Danish was the first translated language for the Book of Mormon.  Mormons Bog was the only book aside from English for many years.  The Dane's are very proud of that.
There were other paintings there but everyone has seen them all of their lives.  These were the unique ones.  This ends the posts of our trip to Palmyra.  I hope I haven't bored you too much.
