Unfortunately www.ufoartwork.com appears to be refusing connections. I haven't been able to access the web site for days. There is, however, another alternative link that contains interesting historical references to anomolous objects painted in the sky by artists of centures ago. One particular, painting "The Madonna with Saint Giovannino" shows what appears to be a classic flying saucer hovering in the sky.
