Fine Art Friday - The Letter E Edition!

Sneaking in here right at the last to post the FAF entry.

And for E? El Greco, of course.

Let's look at some cool stuff. First we'll do this one, because a print of this hangs in our parish hall. Years ago, when our parish was still Anglican, it was called St. Bartholomews.

Then there's this one. I collect images of St. Jerome.

Then a shout out to our sweet uber expectant madre Marsha (hey, I didn't know I was tri-lingual!):

Here's the "beginning of the story" so to speak:

And here's a good image to meditate on during Lent:

And finally, my favorite of all these:

Happy Friday, ya'll!
