If we ever had the time

Crowning with Thorns –Tanzio da Varallo – Ecce Homo – Beautiful Catholic Art – Catholic Art Print – Archival Quality St Lucy born in Italy in 1877The Crown of Thorns," or "Ecce Homo," by Antonio d' Enrico (1575 1633) seems remarkable to us because not only is it beautiful and somber, it shows an interiority to Jesus that a lot of early Baroque paintings dont even try for, let alone achieve with subtlety. In a revelation to Venerable Mary Martha Chambon, Our Lord told her the crown of thorns caused him more pain than all his other wounds. We hope you find this a good meditation picture,
