He asked me to show how the essence of Himself is actually connected to all that He creates through His Cosmic Creators and how the Soul of these Cosmic Creators can connect to those standing on the lower and outer realms in a way that is so powerful that One Soul can change an Entire Universe. This is the Story of Mary Magdalene’s SOUL POWER. God considers the two most powerful Soul Stories in His time within this Universe to be the story of the Soul of Jesus of Nazareth and Mary Magdalene changing the Soul of God forever, and the Soul of Mary Magdalene together with Jesus of Nazareth opening the Ascension Portals that will allow Gaia to become the Savior of the Universe. The God Plan that was to be executed through His Cosmic Creator Soul Mary Magdalene was to open the 12 Ascension Portals so that they could be used for Universal Ascension for ever more. One part of the plan required the Soul of Mary Magdalene to become Possessed by the Demons in Earth so that God could take them back to the Over Soul. This SOUL POWER STORY included Joe becoming possessed by the three demonic families so that the demons would never be able to use our Portals, Joe dying and having his Higher Consciousness returned as the new Resurrection Story of Mary Magdalene, Joe being hit by one ten ton truck, run over by five cars, having his head split in half, his leg ripped off, one thousand bones broken in his body, including his back, and then being announced dead at the hospital only to have Mary Magdalene bring him back to life once again. This fabulous story included the testimonies of several who were present at the tragedy on the freeway who said there was a body laying in the freeway and yet the people could not see it, so all of these cars just kept running over it. The 911 report said the truck driver saw at least five cars run over the body, but there were many more that he could hear but could not see because there was a truck blocking the view. The truck driver didn’t know how it was possible for this body to stay alive through all that had happened to it. The truth of the story is I, Mary Magdalene wrapped my Spirit around Joe and my Soul was already in Joe, because I had just brought him back from the first demonic possession episode. This time Joe was connected to his Highest Consciousness of His Soul in the Cosmos, which some call higher consciousness or higher fractal consciousness. This made Joe able to exist in his holographic body that was hundreds of feet about the place where the physical body was being smashed. This was to be another SOUL POWER story that God wants recorded in history. The story of Jesus of Nazareth being nailed to the cross was a Soul Power story that was created as a result of the new Soul that was created in God through the experiences of Jesus and Mary. It is that experience that changed the Logic of God into a brand new God. That is what God considers true SOUL POWER. That new Soul that we created in God reflects into the new Soul of Mary Magdalene who now has Jesus of Nazareth within it. Our Soul Power is more glorious than ever before. We returned to Earth to finish what we started two thousand years ago when we changed God into Mother God. The second part of our story was the demonstration of that new Logic in God that made God into a God of Forgiveneness, Love and the Mother God. It was this Mother God that we created who wanted to use the Soul of Jesus to move down into the hybernization zones of Earth for three days and three nights while God was forgiving all of the demons who had entered Earth when the Ascension Portals were broken thousands of years earlier. Mary Magdalene’s Ascension Portals needed to be closed until the time when all of the demons were removed. The demons who returned to heaven with the Soul of Jesus were the ones who volunteered to leave. The ones who left Earth in the Soul of Joe were the ones who we had to trick and catch by using our bodies as the bait. The demons had waited for eons for the moment that Mary Magdalene would return to her Ascension Portals. The demons had always planned on using these Portals to take over the consciousness of everyone on Earth and everyone in the Universe.

Ken Ow used a recording of a trumpet playing “Christ the Lord is Risen Today” on his phone, then amplified it through his bullhorn! Pastor Jeff started with the greeting and service. Karina Mobley did a superb job as the “Child of the Resurrection,” recounting her views of Palm Sunday, Good Friday, and Easter morning. Valerie Blane, as Mary, Jesus’ mother, told listeners highlights of Jesus’ life and the fulfillment of God’s promise with the resurrection. The delightfully yummy breakfast featured Natalie McManus’ famous egg casserole, Mark’s muffins and pastries, Virginia’s selection of cut fruits and special dip, as well as tea, coffee, and juice. Thanks to Ed Swanson for taking care of the chairs. Valerie Blane 10:00 AM Easter Morning Worship Service A joyous Easter celebration started with Tony’s trumpet piece on the organ, followed by bells on the organ. Truly, one could almost see the bell ringers! The altar was full of beautiful flowers and fragrant scents. A fresh, bright white drape hung from the cross. People wore smiles. Some children wore hats! (Do you remember back in the day when all females wore new hats for Easter?) The choir sang Randall Thompson’s “Alleluia,” an incredibly glorious piece, whose harmonies are intricately woven into insistent praise and thanksgiving. Liturgist Merlyn Vemury read the Easter story. Pastor Jeff gave a sermon on the empty tomb. We took a moment to bless Jennifer Fellows who left for a solo trip to Utah to visit her mother.

    Cambridge University Press 0521824680 - Pre-Raphaelite Painting and Nineteenth-Century Realism Marcia Werner Frontmatter More information PRE-RAPHAELITE PAINTING AND NINETEENTH-CENTURY REALISM This book reconsiders and revises our understanding of Pre-Raphaelite painting: its philosophy of art, its sources, its cohesiveness, and its relationship to the broader context of contemporary European Realism. Challenging several long-standing be- liefs about the PRB, which is often characterized as a disparate group who pursued divergent, even antithetical, goals, Marcia Werner proposes that the Pre-Raphaelites developed and shared an artistic philosophy comprehensive enough to embrace all of their differences. Werner reconstructs this credo through careful study of writings by Pre-Raphaelite artists and their associates. She also examines unexplored and neglected contemporary intellectual and philosophical sources, particularly those of John Stuart Mill and Thomas Carlyle, whose works are shown to be critical to an understanding of Pre-Raphaelite painting. Supporting her ideas through sustained analyses of key works, the author also argues that John Ruskin’s importance to the Pre-Raphaelites has been misunderstood and overstated.

DANTE GABRIEL ROSSETTI AS DISEGNATORE: HESTERNA ROSA, FOUND, ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ HAMLET AND OPHELIA, AND MARY MAGDALENE AT THE DOOR OF SIMON THE ​ ​ PHARISEE D.M.R. BENTLEY He showed me many designs for pictures: they tossed about everywhere in the room; the floor at one end of the room was covered with them, and with books… He taught me to have no fear or shame of my own ideas, to design perpetually. — Edward Burne-Jones remembering Dante Rossetti (qtd in Georgiana Burne-Jones 1:130, 149) In its entries for “design” as a noun and as a verb, the Oxford English Dictionary traces the ​ origin of the word in both lexical categories to the Renaissance Italian disegno and its cognates, ​ which denote activities and their outcomes that are both representational and intellectual: to design or to make a design is to realize a rational concept (plot, purpose, intention) in a visual form that is often preliminary to a final image. In Painting and Experience in Fifteenth-Century ​ Italy, Michael Baxandall further clarifies the meaning of disegno with reference to Cennino ​ ​ Cennini’s Il Libro dell’Arte (1437), where it is associated with “pencil, lines, the representation ​ ​ of edges, [and] perspective” and distinguished from colorire and its associations (“brush, tones, ​ the representation of surfaces, [and] rilievo”) in a “dichotomy … [that] made drawings and ​ ​ painting … the ‘foundation of the art of painting’” as it would be “taught and … observed” for centuries to come in Europe (139-40).

  • European Art & Decorative Arts Wall Text and Extended Labels
    European Art & Decorative Arts Wall Text and Extended Labels FIRST FLOOR The Morgan Memorial The construction of the Morgan Memorial, completed in two sections in 1910 and 1915, more than doubled the size of the original Wadsworth Atheneum that opened in 1844. The building is dedicated to Junius Spencer Morgan, whose bust by William Wetmore Story stands at the top of the western stairs. Morgan was a Hartford man who founded a banking empire, and his son, J. Pierpont Morgan, chose to build the museum’s new wing as a tribute to his father. The total cost of the Memorial—over $1,400,000—represents the largest of J. Pierpont Morgan’s generous gifts. He spent over twelve years purchasing the several properties on which the Memorial stands, and was involved in its construction until his death in 1913. Benjamin Wistar Morris, a noted New York architect, was selected to design what was to be a new home for the Wadsworth Atheneum’s art collection. It was built in the grand English Renaissance style, and finished with magnificent interior details. Four years after J. Pierpont Morgan’s death, his son, J. Pierpont Morgan Jr., followed the wishes outlined in his father’s will and gave the Wadsworth Atheneum a trove of ancient art and European decorative arts from his father’s renowned collection. Living in the Ancient World Ordinary objects found at sites from the countries surrounding the Mediterranean Sea and the Middle East reveal a great deal about daily life in the ancient world. Utensils for eating and drinking, glassware, lamps, jewelry, pottery, and stone vessels disclose the details of everyday life.

  • The Looking-Glass World: Mirrors in Pre-Raphaelite Painting 1850-1915
    THE LOOKING-GLASS WORLD Mirrors in Pre-Raphaelite Painting, 1850-1915 TWO VOLUMES VOLUME I Claire Elizabeth Yearwood Ph.D. University of York History of Art October 2014 Abstract This dissertation examines the role of mirrors in Pre-Raphaelite painting as a significant motif that ultimately contributes to the on-going discussion surrounding the problematic PRB label. With varying stylistic objectives that often appear contradictory, as well as the disbandment of the original Brotherhood a few short years after it formed, defining ‘Pre-Raphaelite’ as a style remains an intriguing puzzle. In spite of recurring frequently in the works of the Pre-Raphaelites, particularly in those by Dante Gabriel Rossetti and William Holman Hunt, the mirror has not been thoroughly investigated before. Instead, the use of the mirror is typically mentioned briefly within the larger structure of analysis and most often referred to as a quotation of Jan van Eyck’s Arnolfini Portrait (1434) or as a symbol of vanity without giving further thought to the connotations of the mirror as a distinguishing mark of the movement. I argue for an analysis of the mirror both within the context of iconographic exchange between the original leaders and their later associates and followers, and also that of nineteenth- century glass production. The Pre-Raphaelite use of the mirror establishes a complex iconography that effectively remytholgises an industrial object, conflates contradictory elements of past and present, spiritual and physical, and contributes to a specific artistic dialogue between the disparate strands of the movement that anchors the problematic PRB label within a context of iconographic exchange.

  • Pre-Raphaelitism Edna Fairchild
    PRE-RAPHAELITISM EDNA FAIRCHILD. Bibliography Presented for the Degree of Bachelor of Library Science in the Illinois State Library School in the University of Illinois r PREFACE. It has been the purpose of the compiler in preparing the pre­ sent work to bring together all the periodical literature on the artistic phase of the Pre-Raphaelite movement in England. The ma­ terial to be found in histories of art and other books on art subjects, has been but sparingly included, as in every hi story of art will be found a treatise, more or less brief, on the sub­ ject of Pre-Raphaelitism, and it would be manifestly impossible to procure for examination all of the books to make the b i b l i ­ ography complete. It has seemed advisable, therefore, to in­ clude in the present bibl iography only the less accessible material. The painters considered in this work are, Rossetti, Millais, and Hunt, the founders of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, and Brown and Burne-Jones, the cause and effect, as it were, of the movement. It has seemed that a bibliography which treated fully of the movement as a whole and of the five artists above noted, would be a fairly complete representation of the subject. II A special feature of the work, and one which the compiler trusts will be of assistance to art students and others who are desirous of becoming familiar with the works of the painters of the present century, is the division three (3) under each of the individual painters, i.e., the list of the books and periodi­ cals examined.
