It's annoying because I don't often write something wonderful or clever. Perhaps I should write my comments on paper and then type them here.<br /><br />I agree that the Pieta is the best piece of art.<br /><br />God bless.Victor S E Moubarakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04280638667651857296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2100862372880209397.post-9691747147064050022014-11-17T20:05:47.493-08:002014-11-17T20:05:47.493-08:00I thought I commented here last night.

I still remember seeing the Pieta in the Vatican as a young girl and not being able to process how anyone could have made that with his hands. It had such a profound effect on me.

They are know as Pietas and the most famous is of course the one in the Vatican. The second one was smashed because of impurities in the marble. One can say that Michelangelo lost his marbles. (This is an English joke - not sure how it goes in the US).<br /><br />God bless you, Mary.Victor S E Moubarakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04280638667651857296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2100862372880209397.post-3247136944942374232014-11-16T11:44:00.905-08:002014-11-16T11:44:00.905-08:00I love The Pieta, Victor.
