Meditating on the Passion

Fra Angelico and Assistants, The Mocking of Christ
Italian, c. 1440-1441
Florence, Convent of San Marco, Cell #7

Over the life of this blog I have written extensively about the iconography that surrounds the subject of the Passion of Christ.  

Here is a series of links to many of those articles.  They are organized around themes suggested by meditations, both theological and artistic, and by such devotions as the Rosary and the Stations of the Cross.  


As we experience the final week of Lent, I offer them for your perusal.



I updated many of these listings over the last few years.  Sometimes this has resulted in the addition of new material.  In most cases I have replaced the picture files with newly available photos in higher definition than was available when the essays were originally written.

There is a great deal of material here that you can use to explore the themes presented.  May you have a fruitful experience while using them.
