The Pieta is a masterful example. I think Da Vinci was better at perspective than Michelangelo and I far prefer Michelangelo as a sculptor rather than a painter. The Pieta is a masterful example.

Just as the popes in Michaelangelos time were the ones who invented the subjects and may have even suggested symbols that were used in their day. Just as Da Vinci was asked one time how he came up with his ideas, he replied that he studied the cracks in the ceiling. An artist who is facile in drawing can make almost anything out of a scribble. It would take a bit of creative meandering to invent the figures for the Popes tomb but that is where the skill of the artist and the suggestion of the popes or clergy work together. The skill of Michaelangelo was in his drawing of form and study of anatomy and maybe even the special effects that he created by his use of perspective.

I wanted to see what Becca's husband was into because I saw the write-up on CWG newsletter about you book after discovering that you was her hubby. I am definitely impressed. You end up with a short treatment on Beauty which is one of my favorite subject. Here I send a short blog from my website. It's been their for a couple of years and I don't know if anyone has ever really read it. I know it doesn't reach the climax of your last paragraph but it may contain some interesting conclusions for you. As I study BEAUTY I become aware of her proportions, her curves, the rhythms that hold her form together. Her clarity of action informs me of her intent. When she is gentle it is with tender purpose. When she is forceful it is clear as to why. Because I know beauty I am mindful of another value that was hidden to me before. I will call it 'GOOD!' Good is everything that beauty is to me. Good is the way that all creation ought to be. Beauty teaches me what love and what truth is. My first lesson of beauty is LOVE. Love is the attraction that I have to beauty. I want to be absorbed by her warmth, by the qualities that impress me by her company. I want to be like her, to meditate on her vision, to feel the warmth of her presence. TRUTH is the reality of what love is. Truth defines love. Truth seeks to know beauty in her fulness and to remember her proportions ,rhythms and textures so that I can recall them and repeat them in my own memory and convey to others what they mean to me. I want the whole world to know the beauty that I know. Tony Joyce I read, (browsed) you treatise on “WHY THE GRAIL IS HOLY”.
