The Agony in the Garden / Artist: Unknown / Location: St Catherine of Alexandria, West Drayton / "Jesus came out and went, as was his custom, to the Mount of Olives; and the disciples followed him. When he reached the place, he said to them, ‘Pray that you may not come into the time of trial.’ Then he withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, knelt down, and prayed, ‘Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me; yet, not my will but yours be done.’ Then an angel from heaven appeared to him and gave him strength. In his anguish he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground." (Luke 22:39-44) #stonework #sculpture #catholicart #scripture #masterpiece #bible #devotional #churchart #artlover #arthistory #catholicism #artstagram #fineart #artphoto #statue #christ #fineartphotography #heavenly #sculptureart #catholiclife #gothicrevival #loandbehold #gethsemane #angelart #angelicart #agonyinthegarden #jesus #godwhospeaks #yearoftheword

Jezebel steals Naboth's Vineyard / Artist: Gilbert Sheedy / Location: Sacred Heart and St Teresa, Coleshill / "King Ahab lay down on his bed, turned away his face, and would not eat. His wife Jezebel came to him and said, ‘Why are you so depressed that you will not eat?’ He said to her, ‘Because I spoke to Naboth the Jezreelite and said to him, “Give me your vineyard for money; or else, if you prefer, I will give you another vineyard for it”; but he answered, “I will not give you my vineyard.” ’ His wife Jezebel said to him, ‘Do you now govern Israel? Get up, eat some food, and be cheerful; I will give you the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite.’" (1 Kings 21:4-7) #stainedglass #stainedglasswindow #stainedglasswindows #catholicart #scripture #masterpiece #bible #devotional #churchart #catholicism #artstagram #fineart #artphoto #loandbehold #vitrail #vitral #vetrate #glasinlood #catolico #catolica #fineartphotography #heavenly #illumination #sacredart #jezebel #nabothsvineyard #kingahab #thegodwhospeaks #yearoftheword
