The Musee des Augustins is Toulouse's excellent museum of fine arts, one of the city's most rewarding attractions, and one of the oldest public museums in France. Housed in the delightful setting of the former Augustinian monastery (secularised after the Revolution) the buildings form a perfect backdrop for an outstanding collection of Romanesque and medieval art, along with more recent painting and sculpture.
Israel's image may be tarnished with religious conflict. But while actually there, you'll see how harmonious the world can be with the world's major religions coexisting in one place. Jerusalem is living history. Tel Aviv - a modern metropolis resembling South Beach. You'll find signs in English, Hebrew and Arabic.
Illustration from "La Sainte Bible : Ancien Testament . . . / Compositions par J.-James Tissot"; with preface by Antonin Gilbert Sertillanges (1863-1948), introduction by Maurice de Brunoff (1861-1937) and the translation into French of Isaac-Louis Lemaistre de Saci (1613-1684). 2 volumes. Paris: M. de Brunoff & Cie, 1904. The illustrations were originated by James Tissot (1836-1902) who sketched as he read Scripture.
The edition, of which 561 copies were printed, contains 360 mounted colour, black-and-white and duo-tone illustrations in the text and 40 plates in three states: sepia-tone, partly hand-coloured, and finished coloured state. The plates are protected with captioned tissue-guards. The paper size is 15.75 x 13 ins; image size varies (circa 8.5 x 5.5 ins).
The paintings for all 400 Illustrations were based exclusively on the complete sketches (the inspiration being entirely Tissot's). The first 200 illustrations covering the Book of Genesis through to the story of Jephthah's daughter in the Book of Judges were painted by Tissot. The last remaining 200 illustrations were painted after Tissot's death in 1902 by Henri Bellery-Desfontaines, Auguste François Gorguet, Charles Hoffbauer, Louis van Parys, Michel Simonidy and Georges Bertin Scott.

So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but there was no sword in the hand of David.
The south east window of the apse at the church of Saint Mary and Saint David at Kilpeck. This window and the two others in the apse are said by Pevsner to have been designed by A. W. Pugin in 1849. This window shows the young King David holding the head of Goliath.
En Gedi is the largest oasis along the western shore of the Dead Sea. The area was allotted to the tribe of Judah, and was famous in the time of Solomon (Josh 15:62).
Ein Gedi served as a place of refuge for King David as he fled from Saul. 1 Samuel 23:29 says that David "dwelt in strongholds at En Gedi". In a cave near here, David cut off the corner of Saul's robe (1 Sam 24).
Unfortunately, on the day we were here we were not able to go down close to the image pictured, but had to view it from an overlook. There had been flash flooding due to overnight rain, and on a previous date two people had been washed into the Dead Sea when this happened (one survived and one didn't).
I know I already posted a horizontal version of this same shot. However, I just couldn't decide which one I liked better. Your thoughts?
