Art and Beauty Tuesday--Paul Huet
This is Light Breaking Through Clouds--Pic 1 by Paul Huet. Since childhood, I have always been mesmerized by scenes like this. I always felt it showed someone going into Heaven to be with God.
Huet uses very few colors here, but manages to convey the delicacy of the sunlight breaking through the clouds.
There are times in our life when we struggle to see any color at all. Sometimes all it takes is a little Light to give us hope.

"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark

I always thought (and still refer to it this way) that "God is saying hello." Shining through the sometimes very heavy clouds, it just seems that He is reminding us He is still there.
That's beautiful.
that is a wonderful take on the painting. who knows, maybe someone does go to heaven like that. you never know!
Love that painting. I am forever searching for light coming through the clouds like that so I can photograph it.
