Now when he saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, and he began to teach them….

JESUS' SERMON
ON THE MOUNT

[Captain Compassion]

Wonderful. Thank you.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Glad you think so, Captain.

[Red Badger]

A Cardinal tweeting to a RINO?........................

[Hebrews 11:6]

Not quite..........................

[Red Badger]

I don’t get the connection, a red bird and a rhinoceros, and it’s called Sermon on the Mount?...................

[Hebrews 11:6]

It’s supposed to make you think. Try that......................

[InkStone]

Good Morning Dan, and a blessed Holiday Season to all!

An epic teaching in the Savior’s ministry -
Many beautiful pieces in glass -
#6 Dore
#13 Brueghel
#21 Tissot; the master of depth -

(I miss the Biblical Art University when it’s closed)

Thank You Dan =:^)

[Hebrews 11:6]

Tissot; the master of depth

Good observation, Leon. I quite agree--he's not afraid of tackling scenes which demand that facility. To mention one from a recent thread: the wise men's entourage on their camels, receding into the distance.

[Hebrews 11:6]

[left that other site]

Good Morning, Dan. :-)

[Hebrews 11:6]

And to you, Mary-Lou!

#1 Tiffany and other fenster.
#2 Bloch. I will always love his rendition of the Sermon on the Mount.
#13 Brueghel. This is a small painting on copper. Jesus is almost lost amidst the colorful crowd, the disciples and most of the people listen with great attention while others socialize. The luminous colors and the great details in such a small painting show the mastery of Brueghel to describe figures and landscapes.
#21 Tissot.
#31 by the Hungarian artist Ferenczy. Done in an Impressionism style, the painting exudes a serene, pastoral quality. The time is modern, as if to say that Jesus is not trapped in past history but is an ongoing presence in the contemporary world.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Jesus is not trapped in past history but is an ongoing presence in the contemporary world.

Preach it, Sister!

[stars & stripes forever]

Thanks, Dan.

Depicted the enormity of Jesus’ followings and the natural acoustical quality of his location.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Thanks, Debbie. Picking a Tissot will never start an argument with me.

(Tissot) “... a recent thread: the wise men’s entourage on their camels, receding into the distance.”

Certainly a classic favorite, Dan.

Thank you etabeta; didn’t know that copper was used this way.
Much appreciate your teaching =:^)
