| GIOTTO di Bondone Scenes from the Life of Christ: Washing of Feet Fresco 1304-06 Cappella Scrovegni (Arena Chapel), Padua |
The Lord Jesus, after he had supped with his disciples and
had washed their feet, said to them, “Do you know what I, your Lord and Master,
have done to you? I have given you an example, that you should do as I have
done.”
Peace is my last gift to you, my own peace I now leave with you; peace which the world cannot give, I give to you.
I give you a new commandment: Love one another as I have loved you.
Peace is my last gift to you, my own peace I now leave with you; peace which the world cannot give, I give to you.
By this shall the world know that you are my disciples: That you have love for one another.
(Book of Common Prayer)

Such a beautiful painting.
ReplyDeleteI love the colors, the drape of the clothing, and the way the hair of Jesus and the disciples are painted.
DeleteSomething about the air itself seems different and somehow purer.
ReplyDeleteThe more I look at the painting, the more beautiful it is.
