It is a never ending source of amazement to me how ignorant people are about religious art, especially Christians about Christian art but I gotta tell ya. I have never heard nor seen the image described. Does anybody gotta pic?

Christian art

Looks the design was put into Christian form, but it wasn't Christian until it reached Europe.

It is a never ending source of amazement to me how ignorant people are about religious art,
especially Christians about Christian art but I gotta tell ya.

It's partly explained by the tension between various branches of Christianity:
some hold religious paintngs such as icons as sacred (e.g., Russian Orthodox) while other
branches are 180 degrees the other direction (e.g., some Protestant branches). >br> >br>This is covered lightly in the documentary about the depictions of Christ through
the centuries "The Face" that appears sometimes on PBS, often during Easter.

Mel Gibson was one of the narrators; I think I've seen copies for sale on amazon.com.
