Entry of Christ into Jerusalem

Artist: Pieter Coecke van Aelst (Flemish, 1502–1550)

Date: c. 1530

Medium: OIl on Panel

Collection: The Bonnefanten Museum, Maastricht, Netherlands

Description

The triumphal entry of Christ into Jerusalem. Two-sided painting, that used to be a shutter of a large Passion retable, now dismantled. Other panels from this retable are now in Trier, Berlin, Cape Town and Lisbon. On the reverse is a painting of Saint Trudo, which links the retable to Sint-Truiden Abbey.

In the foreground, several figures are cheering Christ on his entry into Jerusalem on a donkey. The Mount of Olives, where Jesus and his disciples have come from can be seen in the distance. The painting gives a very lively impression. The movement in the composition, along with the abundance of human figures and the bright, fresh colours create an exuberant whole. A striking element of this painting is the unusual contortion of the figures. The architecture of the city wall works like a sort of stage set for the scene in the foreground.

John 12:12-13 The next day the great crowd that had come for the festival heard that Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem. They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting, “Hosanna! ” “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”“Blessed is the king of Israel!”

Love this!

Israeli firefighters rescued 9 puppies that were trapped in a forest fire on Jerusalem's Mount of Olives. Fadel Alan, the head firefighter, said that "We followed the cries and found puppies trapped in a ring of fire - we jumped into the flames and reached them seconds before the fire arrived." What a heroic moment! StandWithUs
