Speaking of Damascus . . .


Why am I posting Caravaggio's depiction
of St. Paul's conversion?

Was Caravaggio from Syria?     No.

Was he ever even in Damascus?     No.

Well, why then?

Conversion of Saint Paul on the Road to Damascus,
Caravaggio, 1601

It's because of Corey's comment made on day 15 of ET's blog   ;o
