I think it's a Greek Orthodox image. Perhaps the winged hoops are representations of the "flying saucers" Ezekiel claimed to have seen

The original site does not give details about its origins, that why I asked.
Do you notice the black god?
What are your ideas of a Black god in Europe?

Do you believe that you are withering away and imagine that death is staring back at you where ever you go? Mad now as it might seem, it is because you've been looking at this picture for too long.

Eustache Le Sueur was a French Baroque Era painter (1616-1655).    
In 1652, he painted Jesus Carrying the Cross.     
The painting also includes St. Veronica holding the veil.

Doesn't Rogier van der Weyden, in this captivating portrait, Portrait of a Lady, give the impression he's captured a very real person's passionate intensity? Absolutely fascinating!

Three of my favourite pieces of art showing the likeness of Isabella d'Este by three different artists. The third piece, a terracotta bust is thought to be of the illustrious lady of the Italian renaissance. I shall leave it up to you to decide for yourself.

The first is by Titian, Portrait of Isabella d'Este, or Isabella in Black, c1534-36. Oil on canvas.


The second is a charming portrait of Isabella d'Este in the guise of Saint Justina of Padua. It is  a fragment from an altarpiece, painted in the 1490s by Bartolomeo Montagna.


The third is a terracotta bust by a sculptor Gian Cristoforo Romano, and probably of Isabella d'Este. c1500.

It is a very famous picture I guess. I have seen only part of this before. This one is clearer. Thanks

Portrait of a Young Man , 1514, lost during WWII. Possible self-portrait by Raphael.


When Raphael was 11 or 12 years old, Giovanni Santi died, leaving his son an orphan (Raphael’s mother had died when he was 7 or 8 years old, and Giovanni Santi re-married). Thus, Raphael came under the guardianship of an uncle, a priest by the name of Bartolomeo. The earliest known example of Raphael’s work was produced around this time of the artist’s life, a self-portrait that he painted at the age of 15 or 16. In addition, Giovanni Santi’s workshop continued to be in operation, under the management of Raphael, who was probably working together with his stepmother.
