The Execution of Saint John the Baptist ca. 1770 Ubaldo Gandolfi Italian This work, by a leading painter of eighteenth-century Bologna, is an oil sketch for a large altarpiece in the church of San Michele, Vercelli, midway between Milan and Turin. Gandolfi has endowed the scene with a visionary quality. The contrast between the executioner rolling up his sleeve and the prayerful attitude of the saint, surrounded by swooning angels, is especially poignant. Salome, who set this story into motion by requesting John the Baptists head as her reward for dancing for King Herod, is sketched into the left background. She carries the silver platter on which she asked that his head be presented to her.. The Execution of Saint John the Baptist 659875

Adoration of the Magi Giovanni Paolo Panini (Italian, 1691-1765). Adoration of the Magi, ca. 1755. Oil on canvas, 39 x 29 in. (99.1 x 73.7 cm). Pendants presented an ideal narrative device for representations of the Adoration of the Shepherds and the Adoration of the Magi. Painters delighted in juxtaposing the humble shepherds, modestly clad in simple woolens, with the worldly kings, wearing silken fineries and bearing extravagant gifts. Despite these disparities, the pilgrims are united in their reverence before the newborn Christ. Panini invokes a long-standing tradition by placing the manger among classical ruins, signifying the end of paganism and the birth of a new religion. A specialist in fantasy landscapes dotted with vestiges of antiquity, Panini concentrates on architectural detailsthe decrepitude of the monument and the simple sturdiness of the mangerwhile his figures’ gestures of dignified veneration lead the eye to the Madonna and Child. European Art ca. 1755

In this scene from the Book of Samuel in the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament), the Witch of Endor summons the spirit of the recently deceased prophet Samuel at the request of Saul, the king of Israel. King Saul had consulted the witch, often referred to as the Medium of Endor, on the eve of a battle with the Philistines. The witch summons Samuel who prophesizes that the Philistines will win the battle and that Sauls sons will be killed. Saul is told he is being punished for turning his back on God. The prophesy comes true and Saul commits suicide by falling on his sword.

Job (Hebrew: אִיּוֹב, Arabic: أيّوب‎ Ayyūb) is the central character of the Book of Job in the Hebrew Bible. Job is also recognised as a prophet of God in the Qur'an. The Book of Job begins with an introduction to Job's character. He is described as a blessed man who lives righteously. God's praise of Job prompts Satan to challenge Job's integrity and suggesting that Job serves God simply because he protects him. God removes Job's protection, allowing Satan to take his wealth, his children, and his physical health in order to tempt Job to curse God. Despite his difficult circumstances, he does not curse God, but rather curses the day of his birth. And although he protests his plight and pleads for an explanation, he stops short of accusing God of injustice. Most of the book consists of conversations between Job and his three friends concerning Job's condition and its possible reasons, after which God responds to Job and his friends. The characters in the Book of Job consist of Job, his
