Rembrandt's Jesus

I heard about the exhibit from the Detroit Institute for the Arts and wanted to check it out but unfortunately I could not go because of my sister's wedding that was taking place in that week. I helped her to make the arrangements and found the best photographer for her wedding, San Luis Obispo Wedding Photographer. I am glad that Fr. O'Donovan created a slideshow with the pictures from the exhibition, they look extraordinary.

Wonderful, pictures and commentary. Thank you!

Henri Nouwen's Return of the Prodigal Son, A Story of Homecoming is about Rembrandt, and Rembrandt's transformation. If the exhibit ever comes to the Washington, DC area, I will revisit the book to see if I can connect Rembrandt's changing understanding of Jesus as revealed through the images of Jesus, with Rembrandt's own life's drama as revealed in his self portraits. Perhaps a good background read to appreciate more fully Rembrandt's answer to "Who do you say that I am"?

Thank you so much for running this show. I had planned to see it in Philadelphia but events intervened. Not only were the pictures wonderful to behold, but the commentary was quite helpful.
