The Ascension
Oil and Tempera Painting, The Mische Technique
2008
Not for sale
This painting shows Christ returning to the Father, after
accomplishing his task on Earth. Below, his mother and the disciples look up in
longing. For the Joyful mysteries I took the theme of a tree; and for the
Glorious the theme is stars. Christ is here shown with a crown of stars,
symbolising his victory over death and his ascension beyond the starry spheres.
