Mary Magdalen Description

Mary Magdalene went to anoint Christ's dead body, only to discover that he was resurrected. She is shown here transferring the ointment from a maiolica pharmacy jar to a smaller vessel.

According to Church, Mary Magdalene was a sinful woman, who upon meeting Christ repented her former ways. She was present at the Crucifixion and later went to anoint Christ's dead body, only to discover that he was resurrected. As in this painting, the Magdalene is often depicted as a great beauty with long golden hair. She is shown here transferring the ointment from a maiolica pharmacy jar to a smaller vessel. The artist has represented the Magdaene in a style influenced by the works of Leonardo da Vinci, particularly in the subtle "sfumato" technique that invisibly blends light and shade and make contours appear soft.

Mark 16:1-7 NLT

Saturday evening, when the Sabbath ended, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome went out and purchased burial spices so they could anoint Jesus’ body. Very early on Sunday morning, just at sunrise, they went to the tomb. On the way they were asking each other, “Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance to the tomb?” But as they arrived, they looked up and saw that the stone, which was very large, had already been rolled aside. When they entered the tomb, they saw a young man clothed in a white robe sitting on the right side. The women were shocked, but the angel said, “Don’t be alarmed. You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead! Look, this is where they laid his body. Now go and tell his disciples, including Peter, that Jesus is going ahead of you to Galilee. You will see him there, just as he told you before he died.”

Note: The painting has been attributed alternately to Andrea Solario and Bernardino Luini, both artists influenced by the works of Leonardo da Vinci in their definition of form and use of the subtle "sfumato" ("smoky" in Italian) technique that invisibly blends light and shade to make the contours appear soft.

Andrea Solari - Ecce Homo. 1503 - 1504

the fountain of Diana located in Caserta, Italy depicts the myth of Diana and Actaeon

built between 1786 and 1789 modeled by Tommaso Solari and sculpted by Pietro Solari, Paolo Persico, Angelo Brunelli and Andrea Violani

[vecchiorovere]

Lo scalone d’onore della Reggia di Caserta è forse una tra le opere più belle del Vanvitelli nella Reggia di Caserta.

Sintesi perfetta tra rigore classico e scenografia barocca, lo Scalone è composto da 116 gradini di marmo di Trapani, distribuiti tra la monumentale rampa centrale e le rampe laterali che conducono al Vestibolo Superiore .

Ai lati primeggiano due sculture che ritraggono dei leoni che simboleggiano la forza della ragione e delle armi e sono stati scolpiti da Tommaso Solari e Paolo Persico.

Sulla parete di fondo ci sono tre immense statue : la Verità scolpita da Gaetano Salomone, la Maestà Regia da Solari e il Merito da Andrea Violano.

Questo splendido scalone , imitato in tutto il mondo, è l'ingresso per accedere alle tante stanze della Reggia , veri scrigni di bellezze artistiche , culturali e storiche che la Reggia offre alla vista dei suoi numerosi visitatori.

Favourite Character Bingo - 2023

Characters I first encountered in 2023 (not necessarily part of media released in that year).

These are intended to be ordered loosely according to genre, moving from classic to contemporary horror, sci-fi horror, thriller horror, on to drama, comedy, then comic/cartoon and fantasy. Naturally, plenty of these don't quite stay in their own prescribed mould and could be considered fitting for another genre, but this is MY PARTY and I make the rules >:(

The hardest thing I've ever done may just be forcing myself to choose only one Baldur's Gate 3 character. If this was ordered by fondness for the characters, Astarion would be up top, but it's not and I'm petty so he's last and least.

As may surprise no-one, the prevailing trends are trickster archetypes, gothic looks, autism coding, and sympathetic or misunderstood status and/or rebellion. Also Billy Crystal is there.

Listing below the cut!

Countess Marya Zeleska - Dracula's Daughter (1936)

Mrs. Danvers - Rebecca (1940)

Lady Sylvia Marsh - The Lair of the White Worm (1988)

Nevena - You Won't Be Alone (2022)

Kim Diamond - Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 (2000)

Brynn AND the Aliens - No One Will Save You (2023) (as an interacting set of characters, not necessarily as interesting actors singularly)

Violet and Corky - Bound (1996)

Andrea "Dre" Greene - Swarm (2023)

Gunther - V/H/S/85 (2023) - Goth boy who saves the day through his prescient lucid dreaming and rebels against being falsely cast as the villain, hell yeah.

Willard - Willard (1971) - would be in the top three if this were sorted by level of favoritism.

Gerd Wiesler - The Lives of Others/Das Leben der Anderen (2006)

Primo - Big Night (1996)

Walter Tattersall - Yellowjackets (2021-) - of call the cast and I fixate on THIS GUY. Got me again, Elijah!

Willie Jack Sampson - Reservation Dogs (2021)

Barabara Howard and Melissa Schemmenti - Abbott Elementary (2022-) - My god these two gripped me. Just give them an entire season. Gregory can be there too.

Gregory Eddie - Abbott Elementary (2022-)

Sally Albright and Harry Burns - When Harry Met Sally (1989)

Raven - Teen Titans: Beast World (2023-) - solely for her design; I am practically floating at the departure from emo/punk Raven and a return to a more whimsical gothic look. Another artist draws her looking like Billie Lourd and I'm into it.

Sharon Apple - Macross Plus (1994/1995)

Spider-Punk/Hobie Brown - Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (2023)

The Medicine Seller/Kusuriuri/薬売り - Mononoke/モノノ怪 (2007)

Astarion - Baldur's Gate 3 (2023) - He's my best friend, he's my pal, he's my homeboy, my rotten soldier, my sweet cheese, my good time boy, and I've been so excited for you all to see his whole schtick since way back in 2020.

Runner Up's: Shin Hati (Ahsoka), Mirror Woman (The Art of Mirrors) - don't ask, Nearly everyone else form Baldur's Gate 3 but especially all the companions and the Emperor oopsies I'm a sucker, Padraic (Banshees of Inisherin), Mary (Carnival of Souls), everyone from Dungeon Meshi but esepecially Marcille and Senshi, Lorne Malvo (Fargo), Motoko Kusanagi (Ghost in the Shell), Brigitte (Ginger Snaps), The Harppy (Harpya), Joel and Ellie (The Last of Us; kept out because of the Zionist higher plot), Dracula and Clemens (The Last Voyage of the Demeter), Martin (Martin), Izzy Hands (Our Flag Means Death), Father Amorth (The Pope's Exorcist), Deer Lady (Reservation Dogs), Elora Danan (Reservation Dogs), Adam (SAW), Carl (Skyman), Kris (Solaris), Kurt Kunkle (Spree), Sammi Curr and Eddie (Trick or Treat), Bitch Cat (V/H/S/94),

Fontana di diana e atteone

Southern Italy - CASERTA, Parco della Reggia. Parco della Reggia, La fontana di Diana e Atteone Beyond a balustrade decorated with 12 sculptures, stands the Via d’Acqua’s last fountain: the Fountain of Diana and Actaeon. An elliptical basin, bordered by fake rocks, collects the water from Mount Briano’s waterfall. Actaeon, on the left, fleeds after surprising Diana in the bathroom. The furious Goddess punishes the young hunter by transforming him into a deer: unrecognizable, he will be mauled by his own dogs. Based on an overall model made by Tommaso Solari, the Fountain of Diana and Actaeon was built between 1786 and 1789 and it’s the result of a number of sculptors’ contribution: Pietro Solari, Paolo Persico, Angelo Brunelli and Andrea Violani

April reads are in green! I’ve read 34 books so far this year 💪

A slow nonfiction month:

Trail of the Lost by Andrea Lankford

I’m combining literature and poetry this month:

A Really Good Brown Girl by Marilyn Dumont (poetry)

Foster by Claire Keegan

Solaris by Stanisław Lem

It was a busy month for smut! Which means I read slightly more than I had the previous months:

Enter the Multi-Vers by C Rochelle (sexy superheroes and fated mates)

Colin by Grae Bryan (final in a vampire mates series!)

Impromptu Match by Lily Mayne (first in a series, an absolute fucking riot, I laughed so much)
