Hello,
I saw this painting whilst walking the halls of the Louvre and it made me stop dead and stare for ages.
The painting is by a man named
Anotonio Campi (c. 1522 – 1587) and is called
The Mystery of
the Passion of Christ.
I have put a link to the painting below (unsure how to embed):
I do not really need to divert your eyes anywhere as it should be pretty obvious what I find unusual about the painting.
What the hell is that?
The Sun?
Unfortunately not, that is on the left hand side of the photo.
A planet?
Unlikely, the object appears metallic and has some kind of cone (or whirlwind?) on the bottom.
The object appears to have come through the skies, burst through the cloud, to present itself on Earth, as if it travelled through a portal. This
whirlwind on the bottom of the sphere could be some kind of representation of time travel (I know, crazy, reading a Michio Kaku book on Parallel
Worlds right now which goes into the physical possibility of time travel). The idea that if you spin a cylinder fast enough you could travel back in
time.
I instantly thought of Ezekiel's UFO when I saw this. The description is slightly different as Ezekiel saw wheels but I believe he said those wheels
formed a sphere?
I would like to put this forward for discussion anyhow. I know that there are a lot of "orbs" found in renaissance art but this one really blew me
away and I had not seen it before on ATS.
Cheers
