[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 10403631, member: 2844"]It is either God the Father or Karl Marx.:pompous: I suspect the former because I don't think Karl Marx was ever depicted with an orb. Which didn't stop Christian artists from depicting God, as seen in this detail of my panel of the crucifixion, Antwerp School ca 1500: [ATTACH=full]523570[/ATTACH] And on the late Gothic Madonna Altar of Niederrottweil, Germany, a panel of the mystical crowning of Mary by Jesus and God (blurry photo): [ATTACH=full]523571[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
