I agree, Judy, it is an imaginative composition. What I especially like is that the artist seems to be playing with perspective. BUT from the point of view of the human body, rather than a line of columns or some other architectural structure. Also, I like that by costume he places the three gua

Happy New Year, Ann! Yep, I like the little shops. Regarding truth and accuracy on FFL, that ship sailed a long time ago. What started out as more of an earnest place to discuss spiritual experiences, has devolved into simply a chat room, where anyone can say anything, about anything, and anyone

Look more closely. The painting shows him in the process of emerging from the tomb right through the stone lid fully clothed (or draped), while the guards are snoring away. This is my favorite painting of the Resurrection, both because Christ looks kind of beat up and even a little diffident

Ok, Richard and Judy, based on this painting, I wonder if Jesus rose THROUGH the stone, but nekkid. Three beings were there on the outside. They helped him move the stone so he could retrieve his garments. Then the three men fell asleep, they were so tired from moving that rock! What do you all

The reality of my skiing is that "I'm not as good as I once was, but I'm as good once, as I ever was", and because of that I have more time to spend doing other things. That translates into two days out of five skiing. So, the wife and I decided to spend a day walking around Aspen and visiti
