RE: Illuminated Manuscripts at the Getty Museum Took Me Back to the Book of Kells (and Had Me Briefly Considering a Vow of Chastity)
Nice post man!
I'm not religious at all but I still enjoy old pictures of beliefers. It's more about the art than the message itself. It's amazing how creative some artists were back in the days and more often than not there is a deeper meaning for the artist itself hidden in these paintings and manuscripts.
Thanks for sharing and have a nice day!
Cheers
Incredible scenery drawing art photo, painting colours and very well composed keep up the great work! have a nice day.
Yes, exactly. The religious conviction drove some great work, which I respect, even if some of us are not very religious ourselves.
I totally agree. One sad thing is, that the church sometimes paid with money they took from the poor farmers and they had to rationalise their food to make these great paintings possible.
Some artists donated a lot of their work to prevent that and these people are true heroes.
Art shouldn't be about gaining money but rather about making peope happier and let them dive in a world they coulnd't even imagine themself.
Art can be so great! Every form of it.
