St. Stephen’s Zoom Link to Join

We’re invited to join friends from our link parish of St. Stephen’s with St. John’s in London online on for a Slow Art session, led by Marc Woodhead., lecturer at the National Gallery of Art. Slow Art is a simple, reflective way of encountering a single work of art together, taking time to look carefully and share observations.

 
We will be looking at The Triumphant Entry of Christ into Jerusalem, a plaster cast of a 12th-century relief by an unidentified Venetian sculptor from the Capella Palatina. The cast was made in Palermo in 1869–70 by Signor Rosario Riolo and is now on display at the Victoria and Albert Museum. More can be seen HERE
 
All are welcome—no prior knowledge of art is needed. Simply join us, look slowly, and reflect together on this image of Christ’s entry into Jerusalem at the beginning of Holy Week.
