A Tale of Kings: a Sultan, an Abyssinian, and The Utmost High King

We finished our first collaborative painting for use by our son, Chris, in his efforts to catalyze interfaith dialogues and re-direct attention to The Utmost High King rather than to the differences between the faiths.

The painting is an adaptation of a mural depicting St. Francis talking with the Sultan during a time of conflict between Crusaders and Muslims. Below is one of the photos of our painting (please do not copy or duplicate).


Planned for next in this series is a painting by Janis of when the Christian Abyssinian King, al-Nejashi, gave refuge to a group of Muslims.

On A Personal Note...

We've posted pictures before of views from the front of our flat. Below is a view toward the other side for context and perspective.
