Ooh, a portrait of Mary sans blue robe. Who is the artist here?
A few months ago I found this on Wikipedia: it's a portrait of Mary and Jesus done by a Japanese artist - -very colorful. I like seeing how two different cultural imaginations can cast the same subject in different ways. Both are beautiful, of course.
I'm afraid that I don't know who the artist is - just that it's a beautiful work of art. Art is one of the few things I actually can thank Religion for... [grin]

CK said, "Art is one of the few things I actually can thank Religion for ..." - Architecture as well. And humor ... unintentionally. :-)
Art, Architecture, Music..... All good stuff really.
The rest... not so much.
