[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mike111: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by cassiterides: [qb] ^ That doesn't predate the Madonna and child i showed, from the Book of Kells. The photo you have shown is here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Madonna_of_Cz%C4%99stochowa - It only can be dated to the 14th century AD. As i said the earliest art from europe depicting mary and jesus is the book of kells - [IMG]http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4089/5026508523_c7e848e65c.jpg[/IMG] Mary and Jesus are both white. Jesus even has blonde hair. Nothing black about them. [/qb][/QUOTE]I keep warning you all that cassiterides and Lioness are degenerate liars. Yet you still answer them? The book of Kells has only to do with the Germanics in northern Britain - you remember, the "RED-HEADED" ALBINOS. Relating to your Black Mary and child. From his Wiki link: The origins of the icon and the date of its composition are still hotly contested among scholars. The difficulty in dating the icon stems from the fact that the original image was painted over, after being badly damaged by Hussite raiders in 1430. Medieval restorers unfamiliar with the encaustic method found that the paints they applied to the damaged areas "simply sloughed off the image" according to the medieval chronicler Risinius, and their solution was to erase the original image and to repaint it on the original panel, which was believed to be holy because of its legendary origin as a table top from the home of the Holy Family.
