A large number of people followed him, including women who mourned and wailed for him. Jesus turned and said to them, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me; weep for yourselves and for your children. For the time will come when you will say, ‘Blessed are the barren women, the wombs that never bore and the breasts that never nursed!’ Then
  “ ‘they will say to the mountains,
  “Fall on us!”
  and to the hills,
  “Cover us!” ’
For if men do these things when the tree is green, what will happen when it is dry?”

Lots of great paintings and sculptures an such.

#7 El Greco, has always been my favorite- it seems as though he is connected with God In That moment.

#12, Domenichini stands out for the way he posed Christ, fallen and looking straight at the viewer as if to say “I’m doing this for you, viewer”

Came across El Greco’s son, and in the single painting I saw his style was substantially similar to his father’s.

so much top notch art work on this thread
it is impossible to pick a favorite

it is very humbling to know all He did for us
the ultimate selflessness, love, mercy and sacrifice

praise God, that He has called us to love and to serve Him
there is no end to the light that He offers to us
His light and His love are forever
King of kings and Lord of lords

you are welcome
and thank you for your prayers
it is great to be back to normal working hours

I peeked at the art every day, since this is one of my favorite threads, but unfortunately my gallery visits were high speed races instead of slow strolls
