<p>[QUOTE="Debora, post: 4333651, member: 1476"]Religious paintings can be quite large as they were created to fill religious spaces. I'm delighted you found a work you love. The frustrating thing is... When your painting was created, the subject could be "read" as easily as a modern audience can tell Superman and Batman apart. That context is long lost to us now. </p><p><br /></p><p>Debora[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
