De Gelder's painting of Christ's baptism is a trip. That disc looks a bit out of place/time!
Not sold on the other Byzantine paintings depicting UFOs though. I'm inclined to believe Columbia University on sun/moon depiction in Christian/Byzantine art.

Or perhaps he was just the son of God...
who knows eh
The only verse in the Bible about Jesus’ physical form, before His death and resurrection, is found in Isaiah 53:2. It says: “He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to Him, nothing in His appearance that we should desire Him.” In other words, the only biblical description of Jesus during His time on earth says that He was not physically attractive.

Aliens, UFOs, are no good, see the fruit. They're demonic.

uhm, just as a sidenote.
The 4.) picture isn't from medieval times anymore. The Middle Ages ended around 1500 (depends on the source, some say 1450, some say 1510...), from there on the period is called Renaissance. Picture 3) is from 1485, so it can be discussed if it is a really late medieval painting or a really early Renaissance painting.
Picture 4) is even later and the time period is called Baroque.
So, as a summary,
Painting 1) and 2) are from medieval times, Painting 3) can be discussed and painting 4) isn't even near the Middle Ages.
For your "medieval church conspiracy":
I'd say no, because painting 1) and 2) show nearly the same thing, which I would refer to as comets. 3) and 4) aren't painted in the Middle ages, so there was no supression of this art after the Middle Ages.

Do you see the people operating your comets? When was the last time you've heard of a comet with a pilot? And even it was a comet, WTF would artists be putting them in the sky on paintings of the crucifixion?
Thiaoouba Prophecy
Technically his body was Human but his Individual soul was Alien and far advanced in universal consciouss evolution. Most Humans only have a power level of 225, while Christ was at 1000. If You do not know this then you have not found the Truth yet then as I have. According to The Angelic Race of Thiaooubans they keep the bodies of the Christ Roles in a Golden Doko(Egg Shaped Building) The Doko is situated on an small island on the heavenly planet and on that island there is a lake. Their planet may I add is located near the center of our Milky Way Galaxy. Our Galaxy is 1 of only 3 Galaxies in the entire Cosmos that contains a level 9 Angelic Race planet where the entities have attained a level of physical, mental, material and technilogical perfection. With their psychically gifted minds they are "Masters" within the Universe and even have the power to create "life". With their mind alone they created bacteria in the lake that releases special properties that preserves flesh without decay.
When Michel was visiting this Doko there were many hundreds of other bodies there. All of them "Christ Figure Roles" some human, many of them other species of beings. One looked like American Indian but wasn't. One looked asain but had a Four Fingers and skin like tree bark. Etc etc.
The Angels are us and we are them, they split 1/9th of their soul down to the Kindergarden level 1 here on Earth to have a human experience.
Going back to the Christ according to the Angels, they created from the un-manifest Ethereal Ocean of Gods Awareness, conscioussly manifested the embryo that they would implant into the Virgin Mary. Yes she was a Virgin. Because of free will all this was asked by The Great I Am, i.e. God, The Great Spirit, Your Supreme "Self" to an Entity Named Xioxtin.
Xioxtin was about to "graduate"/reincarnate from a level 8 to the heavenly level 9 and exchange his male form for a perfected Hampahrodite Body. One where he could harness the ying/yang of Cosmic Energies better.
Xioxtin did not die on the Cross. He traveled from the age 12 traveling and teaching across the globe. Until he settled in Japan where he took a wife and had children. His descendants in the city of Shingo don't even believe that they are Holy Blood.
The Angel Aarioc disconnected his/her astral body for one his counterparts made in a human form one that did not have both genitelia.They did this so Jesus/Aarioc could retain all THE KNOWLEDGE, all the unlimited spiritual powers that the Angels have over the material world. Xioxtin being born human and having to reincarnate lost much of his knowledge of mastery of elementary particles because of the river of oblivion that wipes out your memory from incarnation to incarnation.
There is only one reality and one truth, so long Story Short Just ike Jesus Christ You Yourself are also Fully God and Fully Human but You don't remember because you haven't gone through Ego Death to KNOW that you are the Supreme Being, The God of God himself. Awareness is Immortal, beyond time and space and all pervading, it is the original State of being and all other states of consciousness or matter are imagined by "The Supreme Awareness". There is no birth, there is no death, there is no person It's all an illusion its all a play of light. Only you exist. There is only You. You are everthing and nothing at the same time. The key to the mystery of Nirvana is that consciousness only has a life span of 100 billion,trillion years.
I dont have to prove to you intellectually that you know you know that you exist that is what is called the "I Am". But the first sin of mankind is that he took himself to be an individual. Until you gain the Knowledge you will think you are a separate being and will continue to suffer, when in reality it is all just One. The present the past and the future have already happened it what is know as the eternal now. All that is required is a change of understanding of your eternal position with conviction. You are not even human! Humanity and the Universe and Stars systems, everything appears in you not you in them! Quite simple really, just hard to accept because no one wants to hear the Truth of Themselves being God.

Did the church hide secret information?
In 1415 the chruch of Rome destroyed all knowledge of two Second Century Jewish books which apparently contained the true name of Jesus... One of these books was called Book of Elxai

You realize that until a few hundred years ago the whole notion of realism in artwork of any kind was never a goal. A lot of it had to do with trying to jam as much symbolism into it as possible, since artwork was used as an instructive tool for people who didn't know how to read. They are in no way trying to depict something realistically.
