IT pretty much says what it means, in the classes and lectures our professor shows bunch of pictures, Monuments , statues and all about emperors and kings, gods, and how religion came in to play from early medieval. In ORDER FOR YOU TO DO THIS , YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT RELIGION. YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT CHRISTIANITY a little bit.

Please try to show the depiction of the image. don\\\'t give fluff stuff. Get directly into the point and compare and contrast TEXT ( 4 GOSPLES ) WIth the IMAGE YOU SEE that i will upload for you. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The assigned image is from a manuscript made in England around the year 975. It depicts the “Women at the Tomb of Christ,” which is described in the four Gospels in the New Testament. Your assignment is as follows: (1) Find the relevant scriptural passage(s) that describe this event. * Read the text carefully, and study the image. * Identify and cite the appropriate book, chapter, and verses of the relevant Gospel. You may use any edition of the New Testament, and you do not need to cite the biblical passages word for word—just cite the book, chapter, and verse (for example, Matthew 2:1-12). (2) Analyze in detail the ways that the artist has chosen to depict this scene in comparison to the biblical text. No detail is too small that it should be considered irrelevant! Questions to consider include: * To what extent is the picture an illustration of the text? * What has the artist added to or omitted from the written account? * What might have motivated or explain these additions? The goal of this assignment is to get you to read and look carefully at both text and image, and relate the two to one another. You do not need to do any outside research; in fact, you should not. This paper is not meant to be an analysis of manuscript illumination in England in the tenth century. Nor should it be a simple visual description-—do not tell me how beautiful the foliage is.

Early Medieval Art and Architecture: Women at the Tomb
The story of the women at the tomb of Christ is found in all the four gospels of the New Testament: Mathew 28: 1-8, Mark 16:1-8, Luke 24: 1-12, John 20:1-13. "When the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the Mother of James, and Salome bought spices, so they might go and anoint him."
