Praying the Angelus with Art: This Week's Image
One more from il Guercino and then we'll move on! This unique Annunciation is from a rather unique collection: The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota, FL. It was a bequest of John Ringling, of, yes, the Ringling Brothers, to the city of Sarasota. An explanation of the piece by one of the former museum docents can also be found online.

About the Angelus Project
We rightly admire Muslim neighbors and co-workers who put everything on hold five times a day in answer to the "call to prayer." But Christians have a call to prayer, too! It is the Angelus. Morning, noon and evening we are invited to pause and reaffirm our faith in the Incarnation: The Word was made flesh and dwelt among us (Jn. 1:14), because "God so loved the world that he sent his only Son" (Jn. 3:16).
