Christ Carried to the Tomb

This dramatically lit painting shows the burial of Christ following his crucifixion, a story described in the New Testament of the Bible, according to the Christian tradition. In a dramatic, diagonal movement which sweeps down through the painting, Christ’s body is carried into the enveloping darkness of the tomb by Nicodemus, Joseph of Arimathea, a torch bearer and John the Evangelist (right to left). The weeping holy women, glimpsed outside beyond the mouth of the tomb, occupy a space deep within the painting. By contrast, John the Evangelist seems to step right out of the painting into the viewer’s space. The eye is drawn to Christ’s limp hand in the centre of the painting, still bearing the wound made by the nail which fixed him to the cross. The mourning woman in the foreground, likely Mary Magdalene, meditates upon this hand, inviting the viewer to do the same in the empty space that has been left for them.

death note x the entombment of Christ by Caravaggio🤭

[paula-of-christ]

I don't remember if I already posted this but Mr. Holdsworth has some good points: most notably that this creepy doll takes away from what the jubilee year actually is about, by pointing to something in popular culture (chibi-style dolls and anime) instead of pointing to the Divine through something like Sacred Art.

As an adult if you're obsessed with Luce it's just flat out embarrassing, this is clearly meant for children.

Meanwhile I see no one talking about the actual Sacred Art associated with this Jubilee Year, so I will share it below.

Caravaggio's The Entombment of Christ

[fkapommel]

I believe that it is thematically necessary for griddlehark full lyctorhood, or on Harrowhark Christ

Together, Harrow and Gideon complete the symbolism of Christ. You have the obvious Christographic imagery in the start and end of Gideon's life: she is a "virgin" birth, a genetic product of God without any sexual interaction between her mother and father; she was concieved in order to die, specifically to be sacrificed to save the souls - in a literal and metaphorical sense - of the innocent, i.e. non-necros; and she died ultimately by her own choice, dying with the use of pentrative weapons.

But Harrow is literally the "child of man" - she is the cumulation of a generation, not one but many, the many made one. Harrow resembles young Jesus debating and educating the priests of the Temple, already knowing more about the arts of the spirit, of life and death, than his teachers as an infant. Both are prodigies of their craft. She is literally and figurarively carrying her cross all of HtN, the sword physically resembles a cross and is a burden of both her and Gideon's sins. And Harrow, in her soup making era, pulled off the Eucharist, transforming Mithraeum family dinner night into sacrifical, (not metaphysical) cannibalism night. Though both G & H have lain entombed and miraculously resurected, it was Harrow that descended into Hell to interact with the dead (more on this when ATN reveals what she did in Hell).

In one way, this creates friction, a literary rivalry, between the two characters. Who is more Jesus-like? Who is more central to the narrative? I argue that its in merging them that we see a clearer narrative reflection of the scriptural material of both the physical book series and the religio-imperalist model Jod based his empire on. This meta-textual symbolism HAS to be incorporated within the narrative itself given the device of lyctohood, wherein two souls literally meld to become inseperable and indistinguishable. By becoming full lyctors (and seperately i suspect that theyll become perfect lyctor numero dos), the Christographic symbolism embodied by both Gideon and Harrow will become literal and plot relevant, and solidify their lyctorhood not just as a narrative goalpost, a "hell yea" moment for the reader, or a completion of the main narrative conflict of their constant division. Their merging via the Eightfold Path will be semi-prophetic and imbued with religious significance as they both represent a halved Christ.

Gideon and Harrow HAVE to become full/perfect lyctors not just to release the symphonic tension of their constant coming togethers and going aparts, but to complete the image of a divided messiah.

Tldr: yes gideon is jesus, but harrow is jesus too and together they make Double Jesus. Jesus pt. 2 WILL become canon via full or perfect lyctorization!!!

Edit: I do NOT think ATN will /end/ with lyctor!griddlehark; thats just not in character for either of them, nor would that provide a morally satisfying end that is in contrast to Jod's ethos. I believe they will uncover the process and either temporarily inhabit full/perfect lyctorhood, find a way to balance their soul melange equally, or sever their soul bond completely (worst option!) Them uncovering the truth to lyctorhood, however, is necessary to resolve (meta)narrative tension.

Cronenberg, Crash (1996) // Caravaggio, “The Entombment of Christ” (1603)

[pmamtraveller]

PETER PAUL RUBENS - THE ENTOMBMENT, 1612.

The artwork depicts Saint John and the Virgin Mary assisting in placing Jesus’s body onto a stone slab. Mary Magdalene weeps from behind, while another, older Mary, the mother of James the Younger and Joseph (Matt. 27:56; Mark 15:40) carefully raises his injured hand, fixing her sorrow there.

Rubens confronts the harsh reality of death, depicting Jesus with his eyes rolled back, his lips blue, and blood encrusted in his hair and dried around the wide wound in his side. His entire body is pale with death, his skin with a greenish colour, contrasting with John's healthy complexion; his mother has the same deathly hue. Her eyes are swollen and red, and she gazes up at the sky as if to seek answers or to ask God for strength.

The wheat that Jesus rests upon references the straw he was placed on as an infant and to the Eucharist bread, representing Christ's body during the Mass. Christ's body is presented as a sacred sacrifice for the world's transgressions. This painting was probably made to serve as an altarpiece in a small chapel, possibly one devoted to the Eucharist. The slab on which the body is placed also suggests an altar.

Weight plays a significant role in "The Entombment. " Christ’s body doesn’t appear to be just one solid object, but instead has the effect of weight behind it where heavier body parts that are not being held up would fall down. This clearly shows that the artist was concerned with making the artwork as natural as possible, once again giving it that very human-like feeling. An approach that tugged at its audience’s emotions and brought an old iconic image into a new light.
