Look at this throne. Doesn't it look Hellish? Why in the world would they choose something like this?

It looks like something straight out of Revelation.

After seeing just the first 2 pictures; I thought the central figure was some kind of lizard/serpent thingy.

But after seeing the third; from a slightly different angle; I could tell it was, evidently, and angelic looking creature with long, flowing hair.

I recall this monstrosity.....it's creepy to say the least....It's intention is to capture the anguish of 20th century mankind living under the threat of nuclear war and titled 'La Resurrezione' which depicts Jesus rising from a nuclear crater in the Garden of Gethsemane.... the risen Christ who, soaring, emerging from a chaos indefinite depicting the death......The rest of the sculpture is a collection of.. 'natural elements'... fused with each other and not well-defined as rocks, twigs and roots. The designer/artist claimed..."I had the idea of depicting Christ as if He were rising again from the explosion of this large olive grove,... Christ rises from this crater torn open by a nuclear bomb; an atrocious explosion, a vortex of violence and energy.”

The artists definition and his work does not remotely depict the biblical resurrected Christ...but "something else".
