Thank you for your kindness when I hadn't even signed up for a paid subscription for Pete's sake - have taken care of that - long past due. Thank you.

I would absolutely love the image file. I still remember Iain's post about it and did the odd google search myself at the time.

Thanks for going through all the trouble.

Thank you so much for emailing this image, Mark - I really enjoyed looking at the figures up close, and wondering about several head coverings/markings. Appreciate your generosity!

Mark, thanks for sending the email with the hi-res image! The frame is really detailed, but the image was amazing. Thanks for the article. I'm sure Hillary White will appreciate it, too.

I hope she will. I’m no art historian, and it would be interesting to hear her take on it.

Interesting painting , even better craved frame but the entire concept is ridiculous and fabricated by the unholy roman catholic empire /church , who basically fabricated the entire thing into mythological. The have openly admitted this in many documents , and in their insane battles called councils Like Constantine's. The are 20 MILES OF HALLWAYS , CONTAINING 500,000 ITEMS, SHOWING 10,000 YEARS OF HUMAN HISTORY, KEPT HIDDEN IN SECRET VACTICAN ARCHIVES, WHY ? WHO GIVES THEM THE POWER TO DO SO

Interesting. I've always wondered how people could be sinners six days a week. I've come to the conclusion that it's the guilty conscience syndrome. And confession was the easiest way for them to sleep at night. Problem - not solved.

Mind if I just take a screenshot?
