Representations of the Madonna of Humility seated in a flowery context became quite popular in Europe in the fourteenth century as a private, meditational counter-image to the formal representations of the Enthroned Madonna, expressing one of her own attributes and alluding to the enclosed garden of her virginity. Few biographical details are known about this Sienese Master from whom we identify thirteen autograph panels of this Madonna of Humility. The Child clutches a goldfinch, an allusion to His Passion (goldfinches eat thorns). The rooster on the virginal robe suggests the Resurrection. These poignant references to His Death change the tenor of the painting from one of familial intimacy to that of pietistic reverence and reflection. The work maintains the lyrical and tender depiction of human relationships characteristic of the Sienese school, and the figure of the Virgin appears as an elegant silhouette, its treatment of surfaces more decorative than in Florentine painting.

I witnessed the death of a monkey in the movie Tarzan. I wanted this to be a dark image, since the subject is also dark. I had to crank up the ISO because it was a dark room, but I wanted to avoid turning on a light because I felt it would be too bright. I was right next to an open window, which I had hoped would cast a shadow on my face, in an attempt to look burdened by sadness. I'm still working on accommodating for natural light with the ISO settings, but I feel that I am slowly getting better at it. This was in my workspace.

“Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty [snobbish, high-minded, exclusive], but readily adjust yourself to [people, things] and give yourselves to humble tasks. Never overestimate yourself or be wise in your own conceits. If possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with ...

Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him. “Teacher,” they said, “we want you to do for us whatever we ask.”

 

“What do you want me to do for you?” he asked.

 

They replied, “Let one of us sit at your right and the other at your left in your glory.”

 

“You don’t know what you are asking,” Jesus said. “Can you drink the cup I drink or be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with?”

Photos captured at the Boston Women's March on Saturday, January 21, 2017. An estimated 125k women, men and children showed up - far more than the expected 25k. The weather was gorgeous for January in New England - 50's and partly sunny - and the mood was determined but happy.

The early 15c south door "humility" entrance, believed to probably be the finest carved door in the county. It has Tudor roses, crockets and rich canopies. The Knowles shield is set between the emblems of St Luke and St John.

 

The South door is perpendicular and is probably the finest carved door in the county and one of the best in the whole country. It has tudor roses, crockets and rich canopies. The wicket is traceried and has signs of St Luke and St John. There are niches running from the sill of the door with mutilated figures of Saints and the Four Doctors of the Church (Gregory, Jerome, Ambrose, & Augustine). There is a lion at the bottom of the door and a stag at the East side.
