Over the weekend we went and visited our Russian daughter who is starting her PhD in Chicago. One of our main and favorite stop was at the Art Institute on Michigan Ave. What you see in these pictures includes figures such as John of Patmos, Job, Peter and the girl who recognized him at Caiphas’ house, Adam and Eve, Moses sending the Red Sea onto Pharaoh’s army, angels in stone, Marc Chagall’s famous white crucifixion, and two El Grecos, one of James the Less, and one of St. Francis.
