roerich (1874 - 1947) has a unique style and take on christian imagery. going post some of his paintings i have found interesting in that sense. joan of arc: https://hell.twtr.plus/media/e6d941fb070224a47bef95bc41758172ac60f7e421cc7a68c1b91d149d22afc9.file https://hell.twtr.plus/media/fe148db49bdb7d6e39e8155c8862a258fbe959601dc5f3d7a72c5ae759f59f56.file

the tiny version of myself who often heard that antidisenstablishmentarianism is the longest english word would probably be extremely amped to learn that as an adult this is a concept i regularly use
thats the tale... for now got some new followers recently so im relinking this. you may know my comics or books: below is the largest project i made prior to focusing on that. theres reviews and more images in this thread hope your fall is starting well https://hell.twtr.plus/media/a7a9535fb79db933aab6a64f3bcfc4b1b4541fb7199f55669b5da9c7d7ba7509.file https://hell.twtr.plus/media/9d8282f6940a7030c3007cb6c4bd01d9ee29df9ceb692c316036818b0f4df186.file https://hell.twtr.plus/media/ca6b8bdaed4fb0238f6a3115b473a03b4e608ce0c3f4f1567e64179b4b078be9.file https://hell.twtr.plus/media/3f6bdcbbf5d5dd56b575873f08109751333e9d1d95d9e2422f2c99b7a317d99a.file
i do have a favorite st. margaret image. this one is french, from the 1400s. The hair, the dragon’s head poetically missing, just a lovingly crafted item. it’s small in person. you could easily cradle it in your arms - that adds a lot to the charm and ethereal nature of it. https://hell.twtr.plus/media/5982e758e212a002c11913477fd5e7a5e58f9e73f68ef72c447c93718b625cbc.file https://hell.twtr.plus/media/609ef2919f4c5da6cb015780127c5920a43113fbacc528a467d42f8d1a7f2e88.file https://hell.twtr.plus/media/0218a6e25277eea097ac0f64f8a614ef4efdc80c5b15be0870684bd0e3dbc73f.file
8. st. margaret last one for now, a fitting closer. she was eaten by a dragon and then burst out of its stomach safely, so she’s the patron saint of pregnancy. fantastic. natalism, religion, and dragons. could it be more relevant to my general operation here? perhaps not. https://hell.twtr.plus/media/fe8087d28f7e5a50e27a40a91c892cde859c1663b3162def1b188d8ead93fd70.file
he's also the patron saint of comedians. the story is: while he was being grilled, he said to his executioners, “im well done on this side. turn me over”. i was curious if this was a modern addition, so I looked up his story in ‘the golden legend’ (medieval). its really in there https://hell.twtr.plus/media/4ff0266263ca0d7efaf3d54b22acd70220fdbc2238d4f89d0178c4f72a50b277.file
i was even told by someone in the know (someone here) that the largest monastery consecrated to saint lawrence, el escorial built by philip II, has its floor plan designed as one of these grills. thank you to this true scholar. massive. just incredible grilling lore right here: https://hell.twtr.plus/media/f4f65037532a710034e05355c4b8f79b9c010b28c729f73efe64ae839052effe.file https://hell.twtr.plus/media/048adf167113bf390bb2129786b45a3b1574d6d9c6917488b693ab3e43c6269a.file
he became the patron saint of chefs because he, himself, was grilled alive after refusing to give his church's wealth to a roman official. fittingly, as patron saint of grilling (i assume, who else would it be?) his feast day is in the summer. behold the church's infinite wisdom https://hell.twtr.plus/media/e0a329822a930a6c5e8bdc4a7fa91f887ab2ab31fccc96f158cd51b55ab855a8.file
