HAPPY EASTER!!










This beautiful painting is part of
the Isenheim altarpiece,
which is now on display at
 the Unterlinden Museum at Colmar,
in Alsace, France.
The artist is Matthias Grunewald,
and he painted it around 1506 to 1515.


May His Divine blessings

  1. That is a magnificent painting.I took a look at the Wikipedia entry on Grunwald and his art is indeed breathtaking.

    I wish that I knew more about this kind of art. At this point it is about finding the time to delve into it.

    Happy Easter to you and your family Maria!
