«Chapter 21»

When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you truly love me more than these?”

“Yes, Lord,” he said, “you know that I love you.”

Jesus said, “Feed my lambs.”

Again Jesus said, “Simon son of John, do you truly love me?”

He answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.”

Jesus said, “Take care of my sheep.”

The third time he said to him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”

Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, “Do you love me?” He said, “Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you.”

Jesus said, “Feed my sheep. I tell you the truth, when you were younger you dressed yourself and went where you wanted; but when you are old you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go.” Jesus said this to indicate the kind of death by which Peter would glorify God. Then he said to him, “Follow me!”

«Chapter 28»

Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore GO AND MAKE DISCIPLES OF ALL NATIONS, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. AND SURELY I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS, TO THE VERY END OF THE AGE.”

Morning Dan!
The last one is the greatest.

I expect that’s you, Pete, clinging to your Lord and Savior.

From #14 one can see why Ghirlandaio had such a strong influence on Renaissance painters.

I am an art ignoramus. I was unaware of his influence, and beyond its epic nature I’m not noticing what made that painting influential.

St. Peter’s shoes are an order of magnitudes larger than I could ever fill, but thank you for that.
He is an inspiration to us all.

He put them on one at a time, just as you do.

Good morning.
Duccio, Ghirlandaio, the beautiful last picture and the stained glass windows. Well done!

Greetings Dan, and happy Tuesday to each ‘art aficionado’ here (which is all of us =:^)

Many lovelies here indeed, and have to agree with telescope115, the last one is special.

And the fenster extravaganza is also exciting.

Thank You Dan!

Check your calendar, Leon: you’ve jumped out ahead of us. I know that because I remember church yesterday.

Meanwhile, back here on Monday, time marches on!

...your face!"

We have all met—and indeed sometimes have been—the kind of imaginative smart-aleck capable of dreaming up greeting card wisecracks.

A day ahead, but always late,
May apple pie adorn your plate,
While fenster brood above the stone,
Art be a’part our blood and bone...

Best I could do on short notice =:^)

Well done. Although, regular Sunday church attendance has a marvelous effect on Monday awareness.
On Sunday the doors of my church I darkened
And stayed awake 'til sermon's end!
Come Monday I was bright and gay,
And I knew its name ended in "day"--
For its start I've no need Tue contend

Excellent Dan! Looks like I’ve found Kipling’s lost brother!

I guess no one reads poetry anymore... a shame really.

At least you’re a good sport about it—confused, but a good sport.
