Good Morning, Dan, and thanks as always for the plethora of excellent Biblical Art. I favor the El Greco, among many others.

"Dia shábháil ar fad
anseo!"
"God save all here!"

All great paintings of the Baptist. I especially like # 15 by Caravaggio. John the Baptist was one of Caravaggio favorite subjects. I believe he was the subject of at least 8 among his paintings. Here John, in the first of the series, is seen as a young man embracing a lamb, symbol of Christ as the lamb of God.
Jusepe Leonardo, #21; Mengs, #27 and Ivanov, #28 are all very expressive of the intensity and religious fervor of the Baptist.
Thanks for all the fenster!

Good Morning Dan, and hello to all.
Many fine paintings today, and glass. Also sculpture.
#21 Leonardo
#28 Ivanov
#42 (sculpture; artist unknown. Looks somewhat rough to be marble; anyone know the artist, and the material? And, will marble even last outdoors over time?)
#45 (glass)
#48 (glass)

Great Work Dan, Thank You =:^)
