He Is Risen! A view of Ivanov's "Christ's Appearance to Mary Magdalene after the Resurrection"


March 25, 2016 8:28 pm edt North of Atlanta, Georgia USA: Stars Over Washington will close until Monday in fond recognition of an event which may be surveyed as a replica or an artful representation via paint on canvas, displayed just below.

Wishing Happy Easter to All!
