Christ and the Adulteress st joseph In later life

In later life

The flight into Egypt is beautifully captured the vivid brush strokes of Vittore Carpaccio

from whose feet hangs a large placard with this inscription: Auxilium Christianorum—“Help of Christians”

Varying records tell of him being flayed alive and others recount his crucifixion

He strove for a fair and lasting peace

Christ and the Adulteress st joseph In later lifeA touching scene as Christ forgives the sinnes of the penitent adultress and silences her accusors. Tintoretto was an Italian painter and a notable exponent of the Venetian school. The speed with which he painted, and the unprecedented boldness of his brushwork, were both admired and criticized by his contemporaries.
