Christmas 2024 at the National Gallery with Jan Gossaert’s ‘The Adoration of the Magi’
As Christmas approaches, uncover the incredible story behind Jan Gossaert’s The Adoration of the Magi at The National Gallery.
With Christmas just days away, join @christianart as we step inside the walls of The National Gallery in London’s West End to visit Jan Gossaert’s The Adoration of the Magi (1515). Fr. Patrick van der Vorst carefully examines this large and intricate nativity scene, drawing attention to its fascinating details, characters, and hidden elements-such as Gossaert’s signature, subtly inscribed in gold on the cloth beneath Balthasar's crown.
Before opening hours, Fr. Patrick gains exclusive access to Room 15, home to Gossaert’s masterpiece and other works by renowned Flemish painters, including Jan van Eyck’s Arnolfini Portrait (1434).
Special Thanks to @nationalgallery

The Christmas Story told through Art
มุมมอง 38K2 ปีที่แล้ว
This is the story of the birth of Jesus told through 33 paintings ranging from Van Eyck to Botticelli. Advent has come to an end. For four weeks we have prepared for this day: the birth of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Whilst Advent was a time of preparation for the coming of the Lord, today with his birth we are now invited to walk with Him, every step of the way. But if we are honest with ourselves,...
Prayer Video for COP26
มุมมอง 23K3 ปีที่แล้ว
The UK will host the 26th UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow on 31st October. This is a 'Praying with Art' video we did, set to the music of John Denver's 'Windsong'. Through paintings by Van Gogh, Michelangelo, etc we look at the Beauty of our world... a world that has been entrusted into our care. We ask that we may all grow deeper in our respect for God's Creation and better care for it.
Easter 2021 - A prayer for the World

Ash Wednesday through Art
มุมมอง 18K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Today, Ash Wednesday, we begin the liturgical season of Lent. The ashes used for Ash Wednesday are made from the burned and blessed palms of the previous year’s Palm Sunday. These ashes are the product of a ‘death’ of the palm branch, dried out and burned, and turned into the fine powder of ash. We use this sign of death at the beginning of Lent to mark our journey from ‘dying’ to self towards ...
Bethlehem speaks of Calvary
มุมมอง 15K4 ปีที่แล้ว
This Christmas is unlike any other, to cap off a year unlike any other. The joy of Christmas is with us, but also a sadness that we can’t be with family & friends. Already 2,000 years ago the joy of the birth of Christ was already closely linked to His sufferings. His birth and Crucifixion have many parallels. The Nativity foretells Christ crucified. In this video we look at 10 parallels betwee...
Walking with Saint Joseph during Advent
มุมมอง 66K4 ปีที่แล้ว
Not once in the Bible do we hear a word spoken by Saint Joseph. He may be silent in words, but it is Saint Joseph who loved, protected and provided for the Holy Family. This silence of Saint Joseph is very eloquent. Through his silence he quietly worked away in the background. His hiddenness is something which we see also in Mary’s life, quietly pursuing holiness by doing the ordinary things in...
The Assumption of Our Lady

This weekend we celebrate the Assumption of our Lady. This feast refers to the Blessed Virgin Mary being assumed body and soul into heaven at the end of her life here on earth. In this video we look, through the lens of Christian Art, at how Our Lady might have looked back on her life before being assumed into Heaven.

Please join Father Pat Browne and Patrick van der Vorst in this short film as they pray to the Holy Spirit using Art. The Holy Spirit is not a thing. The Holy Spirit is a Person. Someone we can relate to as one person to another. As human beings we use images to make the Holy Spirit understandable. We need to express the Infinite in a way for our finite minds to understand. These images are not...

    I think I prefer the "Adoration of the Kings" by Pieter Bruegel the Elder which is side by side with Jan Gossaert's. Perhaps some day you can tell us more about that one?

    Hi Fr. - this is a beautiful video and I've already shared it with my friends on Facebook. One (hopefully) small suggestion. I would love to have a list of the various works you used, along with their artists. Would it be possible to place that in your text description for your story videos in the future? I know others would appreciate this too. Thanks again for all your hard work in producing this for us. I know how long it takes to assemble content, develop the video, and then upload it. But we appreciate the result! Bless you, Connie Anderson.

    Tre le figure e la Luna al vertice, formano linee tringolari che esprimono la trascendenza. ( 3 ed il triangolo sono simbolo della Trinita') L'artista pur essendo genio creativo derivante dal filone del Pangermanesimo ( genio ribelle ) In quest'opera rivela nascosto desiderio di perdersi nell' infinito. Come G.Leopardi nella poesia "Infinito"

    Holman Hunt lived for a time with members of my family Martha and Thomas Combe . The chapel at Keble was built by Martha to house the Light of the World , the original painting , later copies of the painting , have a crescent moon on the lantern, this was after Hunt's visit to the Holy Land . The lantern was sold at auction for £46,000 plus 15% buyers premium at Bonham's. . The lantern was made by iron monger ,William Hacking of London , Holman Hunt gave the lantern to his patron Thomas Combe , after Combe's death the lantern was sold to JR Mallam , later sold for £10 guineas .
