Good Friday Morning: Jesus in Prison (Le matin Vendredi Saint: Jésus en prison) James Tissot (French, 1836-1902). Good Friday Morning: Jesus in Prison (Le matin Vendredi Saint: Jésus en prison), 1886-1894. Opaque watercolor over graphite on gray wove paper, Image: 17 1/2 x 4 3/4 in. (44.5 x 12.1 cm). In a subject that he characterizes as rarely, if ever, treated,” Tissot paints Jesus in prison—bound to a stone post, his hands chained but upraised in prayer. The artist notes the white light shining down, a further indication of the early hour on Good Friday. While Jesus prays, his guards, wearing armor, slump over in pre-dawn slumber. Dressed in a brown garment, Jesus has been stripped of the glowing white robe associated with his ministry. Now, as Tissot notes in the accompanying text, he wears just the seamless cloak that he has worn since his youth. This garment, first seen in The Youth of Jesus, was woven by the Virgin and, according to legend, grew as he did. Archaeologically rig

Deatil from Belshazzar's Feast 1635; painting by Rembrandt van Rijn 1606 - 1609. The story of Belshazzar and the writing on the wall originates in the Old Testament Book of Daniel. The Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar looted the Temple in Jerusalem and has stolen the sacred golden cups. His son Belshazzar used these cups for a great feast where the hand of God appeared and wrote the inscription on the wall prophesizing the downfall of Belshazzar's reign.

Saint Anthony Abbot 1440-1441 Italy. Trained initially as an illuminator, Fra Angelico became a Dominican friar early in his successful career as a painter. This panel was almost certainly once part of the major altarpiece that he painted shortly after 1440 for the high altar of the church of the Dominican convent of San Marco in Florence, a work commissioned by Cosimo deí Medici. Dismantled by the early 19th century, Fra Angelicoís altarpiece had as its focal point a large central panel representing the Virgin and Child with saints; below this a predella featured episodes from the lives of the Medici patrons, Saints Cosmas (Cosimoís namesake) and Damian. At the sides, set into the uprights of the frame, were 10 separate saints standing on clouds. Saint Anthony Abbot would have been one of these; a fourth-century Egyptian hermit, the saint was considered the founder of monasticism.. Tempera on panel . Fra Angelico

The caption for this illustration reads: The young man strove earnestly in prayer. According to the tale: A man sends his three sons out into the world with items to secure before marrying. The older ones trick the younger to go on his own. He comes to where a princess lives. Every suitor has been killed. The boy stays, prays to God, and survives. The princess helps him. The third chore from the father is for each son to find a wife. The boy goes back to the princess. That night, ghosts and vampires assail him (seen here). He prays and survives. The princess marries him.

The Bad Rich Man in Hell (Le mauvais riche dans l'Enfer) James Tissot (French, 1836-1902). The Bad Rich Man in Hell (Le mauvais riche dans l'Enfer), 1886-1894. Opaque watercolor over graphite on gray wove paper, Image: 8 13/16 x 5 3/16 in. (22.4 x 13.2 cm). In this parable, a rich man upon his death is sent to hell for ignoring the needs of a certain beggar named Lazarus (a character distinct from the man Jesus later resurrects), who had pleaded at his door for scraps and subsequently died. Now, as the rich man beseeches Abraham for relief from his sufferings, the Old Testament patriarch castigates him for his greed and his lack of charity during his lifetime. Here Tissot imaginatively creates a powerful image of the rich mans descent into a smoky and shadowy netherworld, while the beggar Lazarus, now protected by the Old Testament patriarch, sits on Abrahams shoulder.

(20.3 x 30 cm). Brought before a tribunal presided over by the chief priest Caiaphas, Jesus, bound in chains but standing with dignified calm, hears many give testimony against him, though none can agree on a charge or crime, much to the frustration of the priests. Tissot visually conveys the accumulation of these accusations by filling the gallery at left with a frenzied crowd, each person raising his hand to be heard by the judges, who occupy an unseen but elevated dais at the top of the stairs to the right.
