[εις επαινον δοξης αυτου] New comment on Art and Theology.
Chris Trampel has left a new comment on your post "Art and Theology":
Okay, this is something I've wondered about for a while. Why does so much modern "realistic" Christian art seem so tame and sterilized? Why is Christ's humanity threatening to moderns? It certainly wasn't to Caravaggio. The Incredulity of St. Thomas (1601) has raw power and real emotion. Where are the modern Caravaggio's?
