I admire Ciseri for including Mrs. Pilate walking away disconsolately. She doesn't understand--no one does at that point--that Jesus wants this to proceed.

Didn't notice her the first few times I saw it, but now I can't take my eyes off her.

Good catch, Dan. I didn’t see her as my eyes were focused on Jesus and Pilate.

Masterful storytelling by Ciseri. He knows where our eyes will focus, yet she is in the foreground facing us. The joke is on us.

The Ciseri is stunning…the Bourgereau is also a fantastic presentation, almost as if a photographer just happened to get a lucky shot from an unexpected angle.

Two stunning works; thank you Dan.

Beautifully articulated. I find that all of his strike me in that way. I just wish he had been much more prolific.

Seems to be a consensus forming around those two.

One more day focusing on the fairer sex, and then we’ll pursue other themes.

I think that is someone with a gift of finding the key to the entire scene and being able to present it on one canvas.

Not unlike the Ciseri as well!

Well said, Scott. IOW, the anti-Preller approach. Sorry

Yes, I’m not a big fan of Mr. Preller’s approach…

beautiful

There is no more beautiful woman than one who loves the Lord, serves Him, and seeks fellowship with other Christians

I are
I would be an ugly old shrew if I were pursuing the things of this world
but
because God chose me
I glow
