Proverbs 4:7
“Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.”
 
 

 
 
 Northeaster is one of several paintings on marine subjects by the late-19th-century American painter Winslow Homer. Like The Fog Warning and Breezing Up, he created it during his time in Maine. It is on display in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Viewers are presented a struggle of elements between the sea and the rocky shore. Winslow Homer excelled in painting landscape paintings that depicted seascapes and mountain scenery.

"And thereby hangs a tale."~~~SHAKESPEARE: The Taming of the Shrew. Act IV, Scene 1. 



The phrase means that there is a backstory, a series of events, or a narrative that explains the current situation or statement. It's a way of suggesting that the tale or explanation is worth telling and may be intriguing or revealing.

Jas.4:2
 "Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not."




"the stars and moons and suns blazoned on that sacred wall."~~~G. K. Chesterton





Escena de caza colectiva, Altamira









 Lascaux, France










A modern interpretation of a bison from the Altamira cave ceiling, one of the cave's most famous paintings. Destaca y maravilla el «Bisonte Encogido», una de las pinturas más expresivas y admiradas de todo el conjunto. Está pintado sobre un abultamiento de la bóveda. El artista supo encajar en ese espacio la figura del bisonte, encogiéndolo, plegando sus patas y forzando la posición de la cabeza hacia abajo. Todo ello pone de manifiesto el espíritu de observación naturalista de su realizador y la enorme capacidad expresiva de la composición.
