The person on the cross is Brian.

Could also have been Craig

Have you met my friend... Biggus Dickus? He has a wife you know... Incontenentia Buttocks.

Reminds me of a Noah’s ark tv special where they claimed to have found the ark and that there was a bunch of gold jewelry in it, including crucifixes. But…why would Noah have crucifixes?

[–] dynamojoe 22 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Crucifixion was a common method of execution at the time. That must be Uncle Bob on the wall.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

You’d think they’d hang a picture of Uncle Bob in happier times.

Chekhov’s Crucifix

[–] FlyingSquid 15 points 1 year ago

Well of course they hung up a crucifix. You don't think Mary and Joseph were bad Christians, do you?

foreshadowing

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

That’s a true Easter Egg!!!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Does someone know the story behind this painting? Is this really an oversight?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Considering the time it would take to paint something like this, I would seriously doubt the painter just didn't think about. It's most likely just foreshadowing.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Or a political requirement.

[–] Hextic 5 points 1 year ago

Been playing Assassin's Creed 2 lately, that's a piece of Eden.

[–] Son_of_dad 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Art from this period is so weird. They'd dress the Saints and such in modern clothing. It'd be like us drawing the Apostles and such, wearing 2023 swag.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Check out Hindu devotional stuff, they've got Ganesha on excel and Krishna playing cricket and stuff.

[–] Ddhuud 4 points 1 year ago

That's a church reenactment. Joseph's phone just wouldn't stop ringing!

Oof , those set managers screw up worse than the guys over there at Game of Thrones with the Starbucks cups

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The House of Starbuck. The coffee is coming.

did you know that displaying icons and figures of Jesus Christ on the cross was actually an old pagan tradition that early Christians co-opted to help spread their religion
