Thanks for serious answers!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: The Baptism of Christ by PIERO DELLA FRANCESCA, is a good one if you're looking for a holy spirit element!. Www@QuestionHome@Com In addition to much of the works already mentioned I would also include those of English painter, poet and prophet William Blake!. Indeed it is a must!. Blake held a profound interest in all things Divine and developed some powerful if unorthodox theological views!. He had spiritual visions all his life and "spoke" with the prophets of the OT and historical figures such as Mark Anthony - whom he sketched!. As a result, while not being technically perfect, Blake's works convey a dynamic and powerful religious imagery very new (and very much ignored) for its day!. In some circles he is regarded as an incarnation of the Archangel Michael!. His paintings are well worth the click (below) !.!. do it - -you'll be glad you did!Www@QuestionHome@Com "The Last Supper" by DaVinci "Christ after the Punishment" by Rubens "Shadow of Death" by Hunt "The Crucified Christ" by Rubens "The Entombment" by Caravaggio "The Virgin and the Child with Five Angels" by Boticelli "Crucifixion" by Vouet Pretty much anything by Rubens and Caravaggio is religious in some way!.
