There's a story in every picture. I enjoy trying to find it.

Christ Mocked by Soldiers (1932) Rouault
Jesus is sitting not standing with nothing around him to gather our senses on, we can only consider closely what he will or won't do next, as he went about his business of the universe relentlessly withholding his radiance and splendor, as the winds spindled him into the fabric of God's making.

Like a mosaic you would have found in the Pompey house ruins of a Christian family. Yes, there is a story, the one telling how low a man can descend to mock a defenseless and tortured victim.

Interesting portraiture and slant, Joyce. The study of religion is always enlightening and dreams often manifest out of religious art depicted throughout the centuries...be well...I am enjoying Sculpting the Heart you sent me...everyone of your readers should read your book...very creative and useful, Joyce.
Love,
Sage |
