Description

Illustration for Messiah: The Greatest Sermon Ever Sung, an illustrated guide to G.F. Handel's famous oratorio: Messiah.

Isaiah 40:1-3 'Comfort ye, comfort ye my people,' saith your God. Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned: The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, 'Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.'

"I hear the voice of one crying... I hear the voice of one crying... ';Prepare~ ye. Prepare ye the way of the~ Lord!' ...Ev'ry man and woman ev'ry old and young~ Ev'ry father's daughter, ev'ry mother's son. I feel it in my spirit, feel it in my bones~ You're gonna send revival, bring 'em all back home."

I must say, many of your paintings as of late always some sort of music in my head. It's safe to say your "Handel" project is going well. :XD:
