“Jesus with Children” 1906 Stained Glass

This is from the Driehaus Gallery of Stained Glass on the Navy Pier in Chicago. My photos of this stained glass was taken in 2008 and I’ll post other ones later.

I love this one of Jesus with Children completed in 1906 and based on the Bible, Matthew 19:13-15, “Let the little children come unto Me. Do not hinder them. God belongs to such as these. And he laid his hand on their heads before he left that place.

All three photos are from one picture cropped to look at the details. Hope you enjoy the beauty of it! THANKS TO THE AWESOME ARTISTS WHO CREATED IT.

This stained glass window overlooking the lake in Rotorua, New Zealand, with Jesus in a Native New Zealand robe, translucent, hand gently outstretched to His right, moves me. I composed this picture during my visit in 2004.

The Pieta. Such an amazing and moving statue by Michelangelo. Such beauty, sadness, love, sacrifice. This is not a good photo. The statue was protected because it had been attacked before, and the lighting was poor. But I wanted to share this most beautiful and moving of statues.
