Solche prunkvollen Gestaltungen findet man sehr häufig in den orthodoxen Glaubensrichtungen.
Klasse präsentiert.
Schönen Sonntag wünschen

With so much splendor it's not easy for some
agnostic people to insist on their opinion.
Amazing work of art which, however, would not find
a proper place in my apartment.

i'm always amazed at leonardo's magic! the timeless or even contemporary aura of the people he paints, their striking humanity and earthliness: baby jesus resolutely inspecting the flower in his mother's hand, as any inquisitive child would do, and – even more fascinating! – mary, looking more like his big sister or a babysitter, rather than his mother, being charmed by his healthy liveliness and smiling delightedly down at him. love it, both the painting and your shot! for a moment i even thought the window in the back of the painting were a reflection showing a window in the hermitage! the golden frame with its intricate embellishments, cherubim and pillars – very beautiful and impressive, too! hugs, sabine.
