Guest Post

Century blog posts from before July 2010 are archived at Theolog, our old staff blog. Posts from July on (i.e., until the launch of the new site) are crossposted at both places, as are their comments. In addition, the entire Theolog archive of lectionary-related posts is available here on the new site (without the original comments) for use as part of our new Reflections on the Lectionary tool.

This winter I had the opportunity to observe a Caravaggio painting upclose and often: his Supper at Emmaus (1601) was on loan to the Art Institute of Chicago from its permanent home in London’s National Gallery. From the Century offices, it was only a few steps across Michigan Avenue to see this vibrant, dramatic painting.
