Romanesque stained glass windows in the Cathedral of Augsburg, dated to the late 11th or the early 12th century. From left to right they feature the prophets Jonah, Daniel, Hosea, King David and Moses.
The windows are about 2.20 m high. The Daniel, Hosea and King David windows are still in their original condition, whereas the Jonah window contains some reworks, and the Moses window is a re-creation of the original dated to the middle of the 16th century.

At the end of Lower Antelope Canyon in Arizona you can see the head of a figure which could have been carved by an 11th-century romanesque sculptor for some abbey in France or Italy, depicting the prophet Jeremiah or some other Old Testament character. His long hair and beard form fiery waves... Or maybe I'm just seeing things. In short, nature at its most virtuosic.

Mark 8:36
King James Version
36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
Mosque "Gold Dome of the Rock". Moriah Hill is a place sacred to the three great monotheistic religions. Tradition identifies this place with a mountain of Moriah, where Abraham was to sacrifice of his son Isaac. King David bought the place, trying to build a temple to God. It does this by his son Solomon. In the year 587 BC the temple is destroyed by the Babylonian king Nabuchodozonor. Is then reconstructed to provide only the former glory of King Herod Great. In the year 70 AD, is destroyed by the soldiers of Titus so that "no stone left unturned." Western Wall is a remnant of this great building. After the Arab invasion in the seventh century, Caliph Abd al Malik raises great mosque, one of the most beautiful and important. According to Arab tradition, the Prophet Muhammad was taken away to heaven along with his horse.

Meczet "Złota Kopuła Skały". Wzgórze Moria jest miejscem świętym dla trzech wielkich religii monoteistycznych. Tradycja utożsamia to miejsce z górą Moria, gdzie Abraham miał złożyć ofiarę ze swojego syna Izaaka. Król Dawid wykupił to miejsce, chcąc wybudować Bogu świątynię. Dokonuje tego jego syn Salomon. W roku 587 p.n.e świątynia zostaje zniszczona przez króla babilońskiego Nabuchodozonora. Zostaje potem odbudowana, uzyskując dawną świetność dopiero za króla Heroda Wielkiego. W roku 70 n.e zostaje zniszczona przez żołnierzy Tytusa tak, że "nie pozostał kamień na kamieniu". Mur Płaczu jest pozostałością zachodniej ściany tej wielkiej budowli. Po inwazji arabskiej w VII wieku, kalif Abd al Malik wznosi wspaniały meczet, jeden z najpiękniejszych i najważniejszych. Według arabskiej tradycji, Prorok Mahomet stąd został wzięty do nieba wraz ze swoim koniem. We wnętrzu pod kopułą znajduje się skała na której Abraham składał w ofierze Bogu swojego syna.
...legte ich mich rücklings auf den Kirchenboden, um dieses Bild von der wundervollen Kuppel der evangelischen Kirche St. Nikolai in Potsdam mit dem größtmöglichen Abstand und halbwegs symmetrisch zu bekommen.
Jesaja, Jeremia, Hesekiel und Daniel schauten mir ungerührt dabei zu... ;-)
Dass die vier Propheten in ihren kreisförmigen Rahmen und auch der restliche gemalte Zierrat so harmonisch und ästhetisch ausgeführt wurden, verdanken wir dem großen Baumeister, Architekten, Stadtplaner, Maler, Grafiker und Bühnenbildner Karl Friedrich Schinkel.
Wikipedia weiß über den Kuppelbau noch Folgendes zu sagen:
"Auf dem würfelförmigen Unterbau erhebt sich auf einem runden, gestuften Dachansatz die mächtige Tambourkuppel. Der zylindrische Tambour hat eine Höhe von 22,5 Meter und ist von achtundzwanzig, 10 Meter hohen korinthischen Säulen umgeben, die eine mit Palmetten geschmückte Attika tragen. Im unteren Tambourbereich lassen vierzehn hohe Sprossenfenster Tageslicht in den Predigtraum. Die im Wechsel mit ionischen Pilastern angeordneten Fensternischen oberhalb der Attika sind lediglich Blendfenster. Auf dem Tambour erhebt sich die doppelschalige Kuppel. Sie hat einen Durchmesser von 24 Meter und eine Höhe von 13 Meter. Die äußere Zierkuppel ist in Segmente gegliedert und mit Kupferplatten eingedeckt. Drei umlaufende Reihen Rundfenster, sogenannte Ochsenaugen, zwischen 28 auch nach außen sichtbaren Rippen, belichten den Raum zwischen Innen- und Außenkuppel. Den Abschluss bildet eine auf sieben schlanken Säulen ruhende, 14,5 Meter hohe Laterne mit einem bekrönenden Kugelkreuz. Die Gesamthöhe des Kirchengebäudes beträgt bis zum Kreuz 77 Meter...."

In a way, these roses speak to me. They are talking about life, beauty, transitoriness, and about our duty not to waste this life we have got. What the prophet says I am not so sure. He has been for years outside in the garden, and nobody listens, it seems. His presence is a reminder nevertheless. Of what?
The Transfiguration of the Lord is one of the twelve scenes of the Mother of God and Christological cycles, inscribed in a golden arcade and located on both sides of the central composition.
In the lower part of the scene are the figures of the three apostles struck by a miracle - Peter, James and John, who came to Mount Tabor (later called the Mount of Transfiguration) to pray.
Peter is shown on the right. John the Evangelist is traditionally represented in the center. The Apostle James is depicted on the left, turned away and as if fallen. With one hand he holds on to a rock.
At the top of the mountain, Jesus begins to glow with bright rays of light. According to the Old Testament, the figures of the Old Testament prophets Elijah and Moses appear next to him.
In iconographic images, Moses usually holds a book or, in later versions, the tablets of the Testament in his hands. In this image, Moses stands on the right (on the left in the photo) and holds the “tablet of revelation” in his hand. He represents the dead, while Elijah the Prophet, ascended in a fiery chariot, speaks on behalf of the living.
On the right, the sail depicts John the Evangelist, the author of the Gospel of John.
Преображення Господнє - одна із дванадцяти сцен богородичного та христологічного циклів, вписаних у золоту аркаду та розташованих по обидва боки від центральної композиції.
У нижній частині сцени фігури трьох вражених дивом апостолів - Петро, Яків та Іоанн, які прийшли на гору Фавор (пізніше звану Горою Преображення), щоб помолитися.
Петро показаний праворуч. У центрі традиційно представлений Іоанн Богослов. Апостол Яків зображений зліва, що відвернувся і ніби впав. Однією рукою він тримається за камінь.
На вершині гори Ісус починає світитися яскравими променями світла. Згідно з Старим Завітом поруч з ним з'являються постаті старозавітних пророків Іллі та Мойсея.
В іконографічних зображеннях у руках Мойсей зазвичай тримає книгу або, у пізніших випадках, скрижали Завіту. У цьому зображенні Мойсей стоїть праворуч (на фото ліворуч) і тримає в руці скрижаль одкровення. Він представляє померлих, тоді як Ілля Пророк, що піднісся на вогняній колісниці, виступає від імені живих.
Праворуч на вітрилі зображений Іоанн Євангеліст — автора Євангелія від Іоанна.
I am the man that died
As no man should die
As the dark stole my breath
For you
All for you
On the unforgiving cross
So why did you love me
And why did you hate me
What did you see
That tore you in two
That you couldn’t believe in
That you didn’t want to follow
Was too much to digest
Leaving you hollow
Still hungry
Still lost
But the promise remains
If only you would look
If only you would believe me
Because what you are now
What you have become
Is something that lingers
Something that has come undone
Not really living
Because you don’t belong
So who do you place your faith in
Someone or none
What are you inside
Just a shell that holds a heartbreak
One that is crying silently
Over and over
Until it quietly dies

Merlin
Look into my eyes
And you will know
That I can see both into your future
And back into your past
For I am The Merlin
Wild man, bard, prophet,
And advisor to Kings
I hold Albion in my heart
And Arthur’s spirit in trust
Sleeping under the hollow hill
Waiting for the call
As each time the Holy Hawthorn blossoms
And the Grail bleeds some more
We are one step closer
For Excalibur to rule
All of you who have followed since
Are pale in comparison
Because I am The Merlin
The first and the last of his name

Well my friends and followers, we are nearly there; the next instalment of this painting will be the complete reveal of the whole three by two foot watercolour painting. It was a labour of love, but in showing you the details I hope you have enjoyed seeing those parts of it, and I thank you for all your support and kind comments as I have loaded them up.
Showing you all the complete painting of Merlin, who holds “The Wished For” will herald a new chapter on Flickr for me, as I have been working on my photography film archive, and bringing it to life again has reminded me of just how much it made me the person I am today, not just creatively but also spiritually.
So gradually I will be hoping to share the beauty and wonder of those photographs, and what made me pursue my own spiritual quest to this present day. I walked with Merlin in those lands of eternal summer in the South West of England, and he guided me on the path that I needed to follow, and it has become an inherent part of me.
Whether I am taking images, writing poetry or painting, the Song of Albion runs through me, inspiring me with the legends and myths of the British Isles, and the deep and abiding spirit of the British people who have always responded to our beautiful landscapes in creative ways.
I will continue to show contemporary works on Flickr alongside my archive, which may well end up being interesting in itself, to see the progression of ideas.
My warm regards and deepest thanks to all of you as always, Shelley.
And meanwhile, if you would like to see more of my work, have a look at my website at:
UPDATE 12th March 2026.
Thank you all so much, for commenting, faving and viewing my latest offerings, including this one. I have only just come back on here later today, as Flickr was being 'temperamental' shall we say, and wouldn't load properly. Whether that's just the UK, or more localised I do not know, or just the..erm, Mad Max world we are living in. But it's not a film is it? Or a game.
I have felt a bit rattled, to put it mildly the past few days. I was going to put my latest offerings up on the day that the Middle East was yet again, plunged into conflict. When I went on the net...I just couldn't do it. The Angels had to wait.
But yesterday...the Angels more or less dragged me to my desk and told me to get on with it. This latest batch of work...can you imagine them revolving around the earth in all dimensions?
Do Angels cry? Yes they do. So I put the work up.
I wish everybody would just stop. Life here is so precious, don't waste it, or the seas will be filled with tears and the levels will rise even more.
A quieter revolution is needed, where such stubbornness results in a determination to be a caring human being, as a lot of us are, but we are not listened to. The choice is there though, it just might need an element of courage to walk that path of kindness.
Merlin tells me nothing is new, man will be man, and he is right. But there are moments in such dark times when a shining light refuses to go out, and I am a devotee. That light will always be here in my gallery for you to find.
I will be getting back to you all soon, to catch up, as you know I do. Meanwhile, I am thinking of you all, and holding you all in my heart.

UPDATE 26th March, 2026.
Hello everybody. Just felt like writing something. Anything. I have been so distracted lately - do you all feel the same? I can hardly string two words together, let alone settle down and compose some work. I am way behind with my catching up on here as well. I have tried to do all these things but my mind keeps wandering...I am avoiding the news except for the main points as it is messing with my head. Alright then I thought, I'll do something physical! The garden needs sorting out as Spring is making itself felt and once that races away you are forever chopping it back, especially the ivy, which basically runs amok.
But although that was better, I found it weirdly quiet where I am and that didn't feel natural. I kept thinking that it wasn't quiet elsewhere and some people would welcome the peace, so I shouldn't even mention this. Everything feels 'off' and you feel the weight of 'wrongness'.
Usually in times of uncertainty I can go inward and seek solace there, especially with my work, but I am finding that difficult. The "Weight of Wrongness" is like a cloud cover all around the world; a blanket that does not offer any comfort.
The human race is its own worst enemy...will we ever reach an accord where we an co-exist without bloodshed? It seems an impossible dream. History has been known to judge us...and future chapters will add to this story of our lives at this time in this century. Maybe it will be the same story of bloodshed, because that makes headlines. What the headlines don't show enough of is the quiet stories of care and courage. Would anybody ever have nerve enough to do a 'news paper' of small acts of kindness?
This is where I get a bit strident myself and say I won't ever give up holding my own particular brand of 'Spirit-Light'.
I can't you see, because that is who I am. Without it I am nothing. Something in me will not give up because I know that Light is needed, in this life and the next, and not just for myself.
Friends, Followers, Viewer's, Commentators..do not give up. Let your beautiful, powerful, emotive and gorgeous work change minds. Support each other, reach out with compassion, and let honesty flow, because real change comes from those who are prepared to live with the courage of their convictions.
Well, I wrote something after all. Be well my friends, and be at peace in your heart if you can. I am thinking of you all...

Святий пророк Ілля – один з старозавітних пророків і перший дівственник Старого Завіту, жив у Північно-Ізраїльському царстві в ІХ столітті до Христа. Життя святого пророка описане у Старозавітних книгах. Також згадки про Господнього пророка є в книгах Нового завіту, під час Преображення Господнього, Ілля розмовляв з Спасителем на горі Фавор.
Ілля був ревним поборником чистоти віри в Ізраїльському царстві та грізним викривачем ідолопоклонства та безбожності.
Як Мойсей закликав ізраїльський народ вибрати між життям і смертю, так Ілля пропонував припинити кульгавити на обидві ноги й обрати між живим Богом і Ваалом (був поширений культ бога Ваала, якому приписували посилання життєдайної вологи на землю).
"In order to understand you must stand under", was the last thing the man told me before we shook hands and went about our separate ways. It could have gone so much worse, I realized. After all, I barged into his house, unannounced and unwelcome. An elaborate array of all sorts of detritus washed downstream by the mighty Passaic River had been arranged into various artistic pieces scattered throughout the place. A headless, bare chested mannequin, spray-painted silver stood propped up against an inner stairwell wall. Dozens of assorted paperback books lay scattered across a blanket freshly tossed over the cold concrete floor below. A small basket full with snack-pack sized chips and pretzel bags sits atop a wooden chest of drawers, accented by a table lamp adorned with a purple shade. A bouquet of Foxtail Grass penetrated into the softened white wax inside a glass candle vase, drooped from dehydration. These were just some of the things I noticed before a man unexpectedly entered the room, wearing a white puffy jacket and freshly pressed pants, while carrying a plastic bag bloated with what appeared to be empty single-use water bottles. I suppose we both sort of startled each other. "Visitors!", the strange man exclaimed while simultaneously placing down the sack of plastic bottles and reaching out for a handshake. "You can call me Prophet", the man responded while tightly gripping my hand, as my eyes ran up and down his posture, examining his dapper attire.
It became evident that Prophet is a proud man indeed. Proud of the space he carved out within the godforsaken ruins of the crumbling toxic factory we both stood within. But to say Prophet was a homeless man would be a bold-faced lie. For these ruins were as much his home as a typical house with a white-picket fence is to a suburbanite. Yet Prophet's home was far from typical or generic. Still in a bit of shock that I was greeted as a visitor rather than an intruder, I trusted the man to show my friend and I around his house, as he insisted on taking us for a tour. Prophet did not view anything as trash, but rather as art and an extension of his creative mind. Seemingly random objects washed up from the river or artifacts salvaged from inside the abandoned factory all had some sort of artistic value to Prophet and were on display inside his home as if it were some type of underground art gallery. "We humans must live UNDERNEATH the ground!" Prophet asserted numerous times during his tour and speech. It became increasingly clear that Prophet believed in an idea that humans must live underneath the Earth to allow the natural world to heal and flourish above us. A religious man, I suspect not, yet a man of God, most certainly. My run-in with Prophet is truly an experience that will always stick with me. A pseudo-religious ruins sermon based upon a realm of reality preached by a man just ever so disconnected from society, yet clever enough to escape it and build his own utopia underneath.
Tiresias De Blind Prophet by Daniel Arrhakis (2016)

A wonderful week dear friends ! My last work for this week ! : )
Thank you so much for your always kind visit, nice comments and invitations ! : )
Hamburg - Friedhof Ohlsdorf
Eine Arbeit von Prof. Gerhard Marcks (1889–1981) aus dem Jahre 1961
Prophet und Genius (Lage: M 6, von 1961): Eine eher untypische Engelsdarstellung ist diese Bronzeplastik des Berliner Bildhauers Gerhard Marcks. Ein Jüngling, der als Engel gestaltet ist, geleitet einen blinden Propheten behutsam und liebevoll ins Jenseits: Marcks greift hier die Vorstellung des Engels als Seelengeleiter auf. Er tut dies in einer Zeit, in der viele klassische Friedhofsengel von ihren Sockeln entfernt wurden. Sie wurden damals als unmodern angesehen. Heute jedoch erfreuen sie sich wieder großer Beliebtheit.
Portofino (Liguria - Italia): indizi celati e percorsi consigliati.

Découvertes en 1992, ces fresques datées de l'époque de la Renaissance, commandées par Jean d'Aule, évêque du Couserans de 1475 à 1515, illustrent divers épisodes de la vie de St Jacques le Majeur ainsi que des sybilles et des prophètes.
