But without any letters, just the picture?

Thanks a lot! How did you find it?

You're welcome. I just used Google and TinEye reverse image search. Google displays "visually similar" images and one of the first results was the one without text.

It's a little dim on the colors though. Is there one more vibrant?

Off the top of my head, this beautiful painting looks to be of the Pre-Raphaelite School. They used a yellow ochre base on the canvas (a type of fresco technique if I recall) So we see much of the earthy yellow ochre in much of the painting. It looks a little bit like Sir Edward Burn Jones, but his colors are more crisp. I THINK the fuzziness is supposed to look like the smoke of incense.

I'm with you, Malleus, I like the colors more vibrant. I think some of the German schools used the more muted and earthy tones, as opposed to the gem tones I adore.

Whatever that is, it's awesome. Hopefully I can learn to do this! :smash-pc:

I dug a little deeper and found this:

http://restoredtraditions.com/collections/royalty-free-catholic-spiritual-life-stock-images/products/jesus-my-lord-my-god-all-manton

Apparently they sell reproductions of Catholic art, if you're looking for a high quality version for printing, etc. The piece was originally by G. Grenville Manton, titled "Jesus, My Lord, My God, My All".

There's even a YouTube video of a reproduction from another vendor, for those interested in painting techniques:

There weren't many other versions on Google, but I was able to increase the contrast/saturation a little bit in the attached picture.

Elizabeth, here's a good article to start learning some Google tricks: http://lifehacker.com/top-10-clever-google-search-tricks-1450186165 :)

Thanks again, I don't know anything about editing pictures yet.

You're welcome. I'm quite into photography/art and I just couldn't help but join the "hunt". :)

Why isn't she wearing a chapel veil?

...but it's still a good image.

Is it an actual altar what she's kneeling in front of?

Then Blessed Sacrament isn't there, I think.

It's a (nice) home shrine.

Meant to say THE Blessed Sacrament isn't there, not then.
