EASTER ART - Dieric Bouts

For #Easter and Christmas I like to draw your attention to a relevant piece of European art if I had no ideas for e-cards so this year something Flemish and Northern.


This is by Dieric Bouts founder of the Louvain school. Note the contrasts of red and white against the pale dawn colors. The road leading our eyes towards the sunrise. The  grays and greens. The grace and power. The exquisite draperies. The quietly confident Christ stepping forth.
