“The Title on the Cross”
John 19:19-22

Why is it printed backwards?..............

[texas booster]

Tissot’s paintings bring the final days of Jesus to reality.

Excellent series.

[etabeta]

Heartbreaking...too much suffering, the frenzy of the crowds, the superhuman strength of Christ in carrying the heaviness of the cross, one sublime picture after the other..thank you, Tissot, for your dedication and contribution to the Life of Jesus Christ. And thank you, Dan, for this homage to a great artist.

[Hebrews 11:6]

No clue. Knew you’d notice.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Tissot provides views and scenes of Crucifixion Day you cannot get from anyone else.

[Hebrews 11:6]

Can’t pretend to present the Bible in paintings while ignoring Tissot’s mastery.

[No name given]

James Tissot was a miracle from God.

[Hebrews 11:6]

All of us are. Tissot just got used in a special way.

[Red Badger]

[Hebrews 11:6]

Well done! But it’s still Greek to me...........................

[Red Badger]

I went to the museum website and the painting is backwards there as well.

I sent them an email asking if it was actually painted as a mirror image or was an error.

Will report if they reply.................

[GranTorino]

Another great post.
Thank you.

[nomorelurker]

No other way to say it these are some “powerful” paintings today.

[Red Badger]

And Latin!.................

[etabeta]

I can read the bottom line: “Jesus the Nazarene, King of the Jews”.

[Hebrews 11:6]

I have inserted your corrected version into the master document for inclusion in the future, linked to your post. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Hebrews 11:6]

Getting down now to the nitty-gritty.
