To: Hebrews 11:6

So many great paintings.
All of TISSOT!
#6 Memling. Major Northern Renaissance artist, well known for his religious paintings. His works were influenced or inspired by Rogier van der Weyden and Petrus Christus. The Bruges Museum dedicated to him houses the majority of his paintings.
#11-12 great fenster
#17 Velazquez - Prominent artist of the Spanish Golden Age, known for the impressive use of colors. This is an intense and powerful image of the crucified Jesus. The intentional dark background emphasizes the pallor of Christ. One powerful touch is his hair running down his face like the blood from his hands and feet.
#30 by the great sculptor Pisano, from the Siena Cathedral pulpit, carved in Carrara marble.
$43 Bloch
#46 Signorelli
