CLOSER

 

THEN GOD SAID / "Let the earth bring forth living creatures of all kinds, cattle and creeping things and beasts of the field." So it happened.

 

THEN GOD SAID / "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness."

So God created man in His own image. Male and female he created them.

God blessed them and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the fowl of the air and over every living thing that moves on land.

 

THEN GOD SAID / "I have given you every plant around the world, carry the seeds, and every tree with seed-bearing fruit.

To you it shall be for meat."

 

God saw everything that He had made, and it was very good. It became evening and it became morning / the sixth day.

See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.

 

Hmmm..I am running out of ideas. Also, I did not mean to frown this much, but the sun was shining in my eyes! Hehe.

Artwork, Short Street, Manchester.

It's Athena being crowned by two Nikes, standing on a she-wolf suckling Romulus and Remus. Owl to left, snake to right.

This portal was originally called the Virgin’s portal. From around the 14th century, booksellers had their stalls opposite the courtyard and then within it, after which the courtyard and portal were named after the trade. The portal is richly decorated with carved figures. The tympanum shows the Last Judgement. Below that, on either side of the door, is a substructure of medallions in quatrefoil. The upper part shows the story of Creation from the first day to the murder of Abel by Cain. Below that are fabulous creatures and fantastic characters.

 

“Rouen Cathedral is a Roman Catholic Gothic cathedral in Rouen, Normandy, France.

 

“A church was already present at the location in the late 4th century, and eventually a cathedral was established in Rouen as in Poitiers. It was enlarged by St. Ouen in 650, and visited by Charlemagne in 769.

 

All the buildings perished during a Viking raid in the 9th century. The Viking leader, Rollo, founder of the Duchy of Normandy, was baptised here in 915 and buried in 931. His grandson, Richard I, further enlarged it in 950. St. Romain's tower was built in 1035. The buildings of Archbishop Robert II were consecrated in 1065. The cathedral was struck by lightning in 1110.

 

“Construction on the current building began in the 12th century in Early Gothic style for Saint Romain's tower, front side porches and part of the nave. The cathedral was burnt in 1200. Others were built in High Gothic style for the mainworks: nave, transept, choir and first floor of the lantern tower in the 13th century; side chapels, lady chapel and side doorways in the 14th century. Some windows are still decorated with stained glass of the 13th century, famous because of a special cobalt blue colour, known as ‘the blue from Chartres’. The north transept end commenced in 1280.

 

“Some more parts were built in Late (Flamboyant) Gothic style, these include the last storey of Saint Romain's Tower (15th century), the Butter Tower, main porch of the front and the two storeys of the lantern tower (16th century). Construction of the south-west tower began in 1485 and was finished in 1507. The Butter Tower was erected in the early 16th century.

 

“The Renaissance spire was destroyed by lightning in 1822. A new one was rebuilt in Neo-Gothic style, but of cast iron instead of wood. The cathedral was named the tallest building (the lantern tower with the cast iron spire of the 19th century) in the world (151 m) from 1876 to 1880.”

The double-headed eagle became a symbol of Byzantium very late after the Palaiologoi had recaptured Constantinople after Fourth Crusade, it was initially a family crest.

 

This particular emblem marks the spot where the final Roman emperor was crowned, Constantine XI.

This shows the beginning of the race between Pelops and King Oenomaus. Pelops was a suitor to King Oenomaus' daughter. There was a prophecy that his son-in-law would kill him, so Oenomaus set up a condition that the suitor to his daughter would need to defeat him in a chariot race. Unfortunately for Oenomaus, his daughter wanted to marry Pelops, so she had a servant rig her father's chariot by removing the lynchpins holding the wheels on. This caused a fatal crash.

 

In the legend, Pelops started the Olympic games, brought unity to the Greeks, and the Peloponnesus was named after him. A cult of Pelops developed in Greece that was... odd.

You can see the style of the Corinthian capital is present but instead of the naturalistic acanthus leaves, here we've got highly stylized leaves.

Very interesting artwork on it. Alas, he was headless, so there wasn't much point of photographing the rest.

An incredibly important artwork in the ancient world.
