interesting vibe in the images here

there is an interesting sacred art vibe that emerges at this time. naturally it will be slightly controversial, i am not necessarily endorsing or de-endorsing. just posting

moreau's pieta, christ between two thieves, christ with angels

this would presumably then be another layer deeper into being polarizing. again i am just posting neutrally for vibe analysis purposes

odilon redon - calvary, christ on cross, crucifixion, sacred heart

some of the odilon redon ones are interesting. the vibe here brushes up right against roerich, if anyone is keeping track. lets see what hes got in terms of this kind of christian painting..

second one here is called 'signs of Christ', then we have 'temptation of Christ', harrowing of hell

roerich has a lot of paintings of saints and things like that as well if anyone wants to look into it. likewise many painters of this general time also have other images of classical "scenes" you can look into. for example circling back is bocklins mary magdalene and deposition

my favorite deposition is by pontormo, about 3 to 400 years before any of this. easily one of my favorite paintings ever, actually. isnt directly related to any of this but maybe someone will look into it if i poast

can we get vaporwave

mom: we have vaporwave in the 1500s
