JESUS VISITS
MARY & MARTHA

[etabeta]

Stunning stained glass windows!
Favorites among favorites are: #1 Lindsley
#3 Copping
#5 by the French artist Leroy, noted for his depiction of the Eastern world (In art history, the term Orientalism refers to the works of mostly 19th-century Western artists who specialized in Oriental subjects, produced from their travels in Western Asia, during the 19th century)
#15 Siemiradzki -
#31 Tissot
#33 HOle
#37 Simon Dewey

All wonderful. The Velasquez is intriguing. Thank you for posting.

Good Morning Dan, and a happy weekend to each gallery visitor.
So many fine choices today;
#3 Copping
#15 Siemiradzki
#32 Kruseman
And several real beauties ‘unattributed’
With many stunning windows also.

Thank You Dan!

[Hebrews 11:6]

Got it narrowed down to just seven faves, eh, Alba!?

[Hebrews 11:6]

Glad you approve, Ben.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Grab some, Leon, to keep at home!

[InkStone]

We’re indebted to you etabeta, for your teaching. Thank you.
Each time I read your comments, I go back to the ones you mention; “Oh, I see it now.”

[etabeta]

I could have named many more!

[etabeta]

Thanks, InkStone!
The Leroy painting is great. The details of the carpet on the wall are extraordinary, its colors and those of the garments so vivid. A great painting.

One of my favorite stories! (Perhaps because I hate housework, and would much rather be sitting at the feet of Jesus than washing dishes)

#5 is Lovely.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Martha and Mary-Lou................................

[ConorMacNessa]

Good morning, Dan! Thanks very mch for the bounty of Biblical Art! James Tissot, Gustave Dore, William Brassey Hole and William Blake all in the same array - most impressive!

"Dia shábháil ar fad anseo!"

"God save all here!"

Martha?

Stumped admittedly

[Hebrews 11:6]

James Tissot, Gustave Dore, William Brassey Hole and William Blake

A winter-league grand slam, Tom.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Martha of Bethany's sister was Mary and her brother was Lazarus (yes, that Lazarus).

If you watch The Chosen, we met her a couple of weeks ago in Episode 3.

LOL.

[wardaddy]

As a southern Baptist we didn’t go much past The Mary

And I think Salome is that right her sister

[Scott from the Left Coast]

The Siedmiradzki really jumps out, a number of other fine works on this subject, but that one I keep coming back to.
