GOSPEL of JOHN
Chapter 20, Verses 11-18

Now Mary stood outside the tomb crying. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb and saw two angels in white, seated where Jesus’ body had been, one at the head and the other at the foot.

They asked her, “Woman, why are you crying?”

“They have taken my Lord away,” she said, “and I don’t know where they have put him.” At this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but she did not realize that it was Jesus.

He asked her, “Woman, why are you crying? Who is it you are looking for?”

Thinking he was the gardener, she said, “Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will get him.”

Jesus said to her, “Mary.”

She turned toward him and cried out in Aramaic, “Rabboni!” (which means “Teacher”).

Jesus said, “Do not hold on to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. Go instead to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”

Mary Magdalene went to the disciples with the news: “I have seen the Lord!” And she told them that he had said these things to her.

Some beautiful paintings to represent this momentous event. Strangely, I love William Blake, #9. A profound and eerie atmosphere strongly captures the moment. Two angels, eyes cast down to the place where Christ had laid, a flight of steps, MM is at the threshold of the tomb, looking up at the apparition. Her outstretched arms mirror those of the Christ. Great symmetry, great pyramid effect, balance, silence, striking execution, enormous impact.
#24, by Ivanov, has always been my favorite of Noli Me Tangere.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Thanks, Alba. It’s not often that Blake is so appreciated here.

Good Morning, Dan! :-)

[Hebrews 11:6]

Don’t cling to Him, Mary-Lou!

[left that other site]

Only to the cross I cling.

Rock of Ages, Cleft for me
Let me hide myself in Thee.

[Hebrews 11:6]

That’s the stuff!

[left that other site]

AMEN!

[Parmy]

For anyone’s information and for anyone that cares, Noli Mi Tangere is the motto of the 2nd Battalion, 2nd Infantry Regiment.

[left that other site]

That’s Interesting! :-)

[Bob434]

Love most anything. BY blake- he does always seem to evoke an eerie scene.

Number 1 is nice too, lo e the style, would love to see it close up and see how tnye painted the veins I. The hands, and see the subtle skin tones. Photos often don’t do the paintings justice

[Hebrews 11:6]

Can you reveal how they came to adopt it?

[jacknhoo]

Good afternoon Dan,

#40 by VALENTIN DE BOULOGNE
“Noli Me Tangere”

For some reason, it moved me to sorrow. Perhaps it’s the times we are in.

I see/view all of your posts - just so you know, I appreciate them all and appreciate the pings.

Hope all is well with you and yours,

Jack

[Hebrews 11:6]

Thank you, Jack. That's very gracious. It's always nice to hear from you!

That moment which Boulonge illustrates is so loaded. Does it not augur that moment when, newly arrived in heaven, we reach for Him and He does let us cling to Him?

Don't know whether you're a fan of The Chosen; for those who are, the prospect of seeing this scene five years from now, during Season 7, is too tangible. Can't wait--but as I'm already 72 with heart trouble, perhaps I'll be clinging to Him for real before then.

[ConorMacNessa]

Thanks very much for the superb array, Dan! I'm unable to select a favorite from among so many sublime pieces, but I think the Blake is worthy of unusual note. Several offerings from Tissot in the batch as well.

"Dia shábháil ar fad anseo!"

"God save all here!"

[Hebrews 11:6]

You are now the second, Tom, to single out Blake today. Usually, he just gives me the heebie-jeebies, but less so today....

Gotta say, just seeing your bold banner, knowing your text accompanies it, makes me smile.

[Vendome]

Luv em all for their ability to express humility...

[Hebrews 11:6]

Very well said. If you don’t feel humble when at the feet of the risen Lord....

[Albion Wilde]

Congratulations to the medieval illuminator #50 (and Fontana #12 and Poussin #32) who gave us the only realistic type of garment that the Christ could have been wearing if he wished to pass as a gardener and not be recognized. Such clothing makes sense of Mary's initial inability to recognize her Savior. Scripture indicates that Mary recognized Him by His voice when He spoke her name. The auditory channel being unavailable to the painter, #50 used a gesture in the painting, of Jesus lifting His hands to show her the scars. So, "A" for effort in conveying the pivotal moment of the story, in spite of the northwestern European background.

As I've indicated before, I feel irritated with painterly excesses in this most exalted arena of Christ's supernatural Being having been set free from earthly restraints in these passages; so the many figure studies of barely marked, hairless flesh, amazing pecs, rippling muscles, flowing drapes and immaculate robes (even #6B Tissot, God bless'im) turn me right the heck off. No offense to any of the artists, except for the ones who pushed their paintings more successfully into the realm of symbolism or iconography, such as #16 and its clone at #41, Perugino #36, and the stunning Fra Angelico #46).

#4A Tissot's lovely depiction of the two awe-inspiring angels is likely to ignite the debate again as to whether angels are males or females. I agree with Hebrews 11:6's view that they can be whatever they want. A strongly believing black woman friend of mine whose main education has been mostly the Bible was late to our prayer group one time. She came in shook up, because she said she had had a car accident, at an intersection in a black neighborhood on the way to the church. She said, "I got out of the car. I was so dazed, but two white men came and helped me." Am I, Albion Wilde, wrong to have thought they might have been angels?

I had a similar experience once when passing an horrific car accident on a major highway. Four or five crash victims were laid on the grassy berm, near an overturned car. Beside each, an EMT was crouched, strong young men dressed in immaculate white pants and short-sleeved uniform shirts, gazing down at them. The EMTs' lack of movement and meditative watchfulness made me think the victims had already died, and that they were decently waiting with the bodies until vehicles arrived to take them away. But I also thought they could have been angels, because they were beautiful, they were on one or both knees, and they literally dazzled. I had to keep moving on by in the stream of traffic; but I prayed for the next many miles.

That said, the body language of both figures in #7 Copping and of the Christ in #10 Edelfelt is deeply poignant.

There were many others that appealed to me artistically or because of their idiosyncratic quirks in spite of their aforementioned irritating content, such as #19, #22, #23, #33, #34, #43, #44.

This was a challenging session, Professor Dan! Thank you!
