  • The Calling of St. Matthew (1600) by Caravaggio

    Vendee Radio wonderfully describes this painting in the interview linked below. I recommend listening/watching, as it gives you a better appreciation for all the details presented in its contents (start at 43:32):

  • Medal depicting Girolamo Savonarola by Niccolo Fiorentino. Currently housed at the MET in NYC.
    I wish I could get a medal of this. The Triumph of the Cross is an outstanding work, which I'm finally getting around to reading now.
    "Be not therefore solicitous for tomorrow; for the morrow will be solicitous for itself. Sufficient for the day is the evil thereof." [Matt. 6:34]

    "In all thy works remember thy last end, and thou shalt never sin." [Ecclus. 7:40]

    "A holy man continueth in wisdom as the sun: but a fool is changed as the moon." [Ecclus. 27:12]

  • If only it were all so simple! If only there were evil people somewhere insidiously committing evil deeds, and it were necessary only to separate them from the rest of us and destroy them. But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being. And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?

    ― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago
