  13. First Joyful Mystery - The Annunciation • When Adam and Eve sinned in Paradise, they lost their right to happiness. But God promised to send His only Son to regain this happiness for them. Out of all the world, God chose Mary to be the Mother of His Son. One day the Angel Gabriel from heaven appeared to her. "Hail, full of grace!" he cried. And he told her that she was to be the Mother of the Most High. Mary answered, "Behold the handmaid of the Lord!" At that moment the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity, God’s Son, entered the world. This is called the Incarnation. 

  14. Second Joyful Mystery - The Visitation • The Angel Gabriel told Mary that her cousin Elizabeth, though an old lady, was to have a little son. This son was St. John the Baptist. So immediately Mary hurried over the hills to take care of her cousin. When Elizabeth saw her, she cried, "Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb." Mary answered by singing the Magnificat. Mary stayed with her cousin until John the Baptist was born. She was Elizabeth’s little nurse and maid servant. When John was born and Elizabeth was strong again, Mary returned to her own home to wait for the birth of her own dear Son, Jesus. 

  15. Third Joyful Mystery -The Nativity • The proud Roman Emperor ordered all his citizens to pay their taxes in their home cities. So Joseph, the husband of Mary, and Mary traveled to Bethlehem. Bethlehem was so full of visitors they could not find a place to sleep. So they went out to a little stable in a hill. And there Jesus, the Savior of the world, was born. A glorious star shone in the heavens. Angels sang, "Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace to men of good will!" Shepherds came to adore the newborn King. Wise Men from the east brought Him lovely gifts. Mary was deeply happy. She lifted Him high for the world to see. This was the first Christmas.

  16. Fourth Joyful Mystery -The Presentation • All men and women are the children of God. The holy Jews carried each first born son to the Temple and offered him to God. Then in his place, they gave God a lamb or, if they were poor, a pair of pure white doves. So Mary carried her Son to the Temple. She offered Him to God. Then, because she was poor, she offered in His place two white doves. But a great prophet called Simeon saw the Baby and knew this was the Savior of the world. He cried aloud in his joy. And a wise old lady named Anna blessed Him and His dear Mother. Then Mary carried her Son home again. She was His beloved nurse and teacher and protector. 

  17. Fifth Joyful Mystery -The Finding in the Temple • The Jewish Temple was God’s house on earth. When Jesus was twelve years old, Joseph and Mary took Him to Jerusalem where the Temple stood. Jesus loved His Father’s house. So when Mary and Joseph returned to Nazareth, their home town, He stayed behind. He knew that God wished Him to stay longer in His Father’s house. Soon Mary and Joseph found that Jesus was lost. They hurried back to the Temple. For three days and nights they looked everywhere for Him. Finally, they found Him seated among the doctors and priests. He was asking them wise questions and teaching them about the Savior. He did this because this was "His Father’s business." Then quietly He returned to Nazareth with Joseph and Mary and for the rest of His youth, He was perfectly obedient to them. 

  18. First Sorrowful Mystery -The Agony in the Garden • Everyone who commits a sin is a criminal against the good God. So he should be punished. But Jesus, our Saviour, came to take the sinner’s place. He asked God to punish Him instead of us who really are the guilty ones. This suffering of Christ we call His Passion. On Holy Thursday after He gave us the Blessed Sacrament, He went into a lonely garden called Gethsemane. He looked ahead and saw all He was going to suffer. He saw all our sins, ugly, filthy, evil. And the thought of His Passion and our sins made Him sweat blood. This blood poured down upon the ground in His agony. Then Judas came with the soldiers. Like a traitor he kissed Jesus. The soldiers led Him away to death. 

  19. Second Sorrowful Mystery -The Scourging • Pilate, the Roman Governor, knew that Jesus was not guilty. But all the people cried out for His death. And because Jesus had taken our place, God, His Father, was willing to let His Son die. Pilate ordered Him to be whipped. The soldiers fastened Him to a stone column. Then with heavy whips, they beat His back. Jesus suffered terribly from this scourging. But He did not cry out. For He knew who many people commit sins with their bodies. We sometimes call these the sins of the flesh. So He wanted to suffer for their sad sins. He wanted us to be strong against this kind of ugly sin. 

  20. Third Sorrowful Mystery -The Crowning with Thorns • Jesus was the King of Kings, the King of the Jews. But the Roman soldiers thought this was funny. "Still, let’s pretend that He is," one of them cried. "For a joke let’s make Him a crown." So they picked up a branch of cruel thorns, and made it into a crown. They pushed it into the head of our Savior. It hurt Him terribly. The blood ran down into His eyes. The thorns tore His skin and reached toward His brain. Then the soldiers put a reed in His hand. They threw a dirty red cloak over His shoulders. They laughed at Him and cried, "Hail to the King!" Jesus suffered all this because of our sins of thought and pride. 

  21. Fourth Sorrowful Mystery -The Carrying of the Cross • Pilate heard the people cry out, "Crucify Him!" So Pilate ordered Him to be nailed on a cross. But first He had to carry His own cross up to the top of Calvary. The cross was very heavy. The soldiers put it on His shoulder and it rubbed against His torn flesh. They dragged Him through the city and up the hill to die. The people laughed at Him and threw rocks and mud. When He fell, the soldiers kicked Him to His feet. Once along the way, He met Mary, His Mother. But she could do nothing to help her dear Son. Veronica ran out of the crowd and wiped His face with her veil. Some good women wept for Him. And Simon was forced to help Him carry the cross. 

  22. Fifth Sorrowful Mystery -The Crucifixion • For three hours our dear Lord hung on the cross. He was taking on Himself the punishment for our sins. He prayed to His Father in heaven, "Father, forgive them." He forgave the terrible sinner who became the Good Thief. He gave us His own dear Mother. He cried out because He was thirsty for our love. At length, He knew that God had forgiven our sins. Once more, we had the right to enter heaven. So He dropped His head and died. "Greater love than this no man hath than to lay down his life for his friends." 

  23. First Glorious Mystery -The Resurrection • Christ died on Good Friday. He was buried in the Holy Sepulchre. For three days He lay dead. Soldiers guarded the tomb. The Roman Governor, Pilate, placed on the heavy door the seal of Rome. Then Sunday morning dawned. Beautiful light appeared in the sky. The soldiers saw light pouring from the grave where Jesus lay. The great, heavy stone rolled away of itself. And Jesus, glorious, strong, beautiful, and alive, came forth from the tomb. He visited His dear Mother and thanked her. He showed Himself to Mary Magdalen who was weeping for Him. He appeared to His Apostles. He proved to us that we shall live forever. This was the first Easter. 

  24. Second Glorious Mystery - The Ascension • For forth days Jesus remained on earth after His Resurrection. He established His Church and gave it wonderful powers. He talked to His friends, telling them about heaven, and about the work they must do first for God and souls. Then one Thursday, He took them all up on Mount Olivet. He gave them His last instructions and said goodbye. Slowly by His own power, He began to rise from the earth. He stretched out His hands to bless them. He smiled down for the last time upon His Mother. At last a cloud covered Him, and He entered the joys of heaven. An angel then came to the Apostles and told them to go back and begin to work for souls. Some day they too would enter heaven and be happy forever. 

  25. Third Glorious Mystery -The Descent of the Holy Ghost • Christ had promised the Apostles, "I will send you the Holy Spirit. He will be your Comforter." After Jesus left them, the Apostles were afraid. So they hid themselves in the little apartment of Mary. They prayed and waited for nine days. This was the first Novena. Then on Pentacost, over their heads, the Apostles saw parted tongues of fire. A tongue settled on each of their heads. The Holy Spirit had come. At once, they went out and began to tell everyone about Jesus. They spoke so strongly that thousands believed and were baptized. This was the birthday of the Catholic Church.

  26. Fourth Glorious Mystery - The Assumption • For a long time, Jesus left His Mother on earth. He wanted her to take care of His Apostles, and be the Mother of the new Church. Then one day He quietly sent for her, and with a smile she died. The Apostles came from all over the earth to be at her deathbed. They carried her body to her grave and laid it gently in the ground. Saint Thomas came late, after the burial. When the Apostles took him to the grave, they found it empty and open. Where Mary’s body had rested, beautiful lilies were growing. Jesus had sent His angels to bring the body of His Mother to heaven. It was too pure to rest in the earth. It had served Him so well that it must at once enjoy the happiness of heaven. 

  27. Fifth Glorious Mystery -The Coronation • Mary had served Jesus all her life. She had loved and served God with her whole heart and soul. She had never committed the slightest sin. So in heaven she was to have her reward. Body and soul, Mary entered heaven. Her Son, Jesus, met her and took her in His grateful arms. The heavenly Father said, "This is My dear devoted daughter." The Divine Son said, "This is My dear faithful Mother." The Holy Spirit said, "This is my sweet, pure bride." And the saints and angels all cried, "This is our Queen!" So Jesus, the King of Kings, seated her on her throne. On her head He placed a glorious crown of stars. But Mary looked down to see her children on earth. For now she could help her sons and daughters to reach heaven. Mary is the Queen of Heaven. But she is our loving Mother who protects us with her power. 

  28. the Evangelist • In the Gothic vaults of the Tornabuoni Chapel the four Evangelists are floating on clouds. • St Matthew the Evangelist is holding the slate pencil in the fingertips of his right hand, and with his left hand he is holding out an open book for us to see. As he does so, he is looking attentively at his symbol, the little angel. The latter, wearing a fluttering garment, comes very close to the Evangelist in order to convey to him the word of God. St Matthew the Evangelist 1486-90 FrescoCappella Tornabuoni, Santa Maria Novella, Florence

  29. St Mark the Evangelist is concentrating on sharpening his quill with a knife. The lion at his feet, his symbolic animal, is looking into the chapel with his large eyes. St Mark the Evangelist 1486-90 FrescoCappella Tornabuoni, Santa Maria Novella, Florence

  30. St John the Evangelist is writing down God's words, which are being conveyed to him by his symbolic animal, the eagle, on a piece of paper. • St John the Evangelist • 1486-90 FrescoCappella Tornabuoni, Santa Maria Novella, Florence

  31. St Luke the Evangelist, depicted as a young man with brown hair and a beard, is looking at a little book on his knee as he writes down the life of Christ. On his left a very realistic ox, the Evangelist's symbol, is resting. The reflections in its large black eye make it look quite good-natured. • St Luke the Evangelist • 1486-90 FrescoCappella Tornabuoni, Santa Maria Novella, Florence

  32. Secluded on the Greek island of Patmos, Saint John the Evangelist experienced his apocalyptic vision of the Second Coming of Christ. This painting depicts the moment when he was inspired by God the Father to write the Book of Revelation. Seen from a low vantage point and dramatically silhouetted against the sky, the heroic figure of John is radically foreshortened. With bent knees and upthrust arms, he looks up to witness God, accompanied by angels, bursting through the clouds above his head. The brilliant hues of yellow, blue, and red draw the eye upward through the physical boundaries of the ceiling and into the heavenly realm. The emotional impact of the subject is further intensified by Titian's broad, expressive brushstrokes. • TitianVenetian, c. 1490 - 1576Saint John the Evangelist on Patmos, c. 1547oil on canvas, 237.6 x 263 cm Samuel H. Kress Collection 1957.14.6

  33. 三、早期基督教艺术 • (一)定义 • 早期基督教被视为反动的非法团体,为了躲避罗马官兵的拘捕,采取“地下活动”,在地下墓窟用隐喻象征的图象做为信徒膜拜的对象。所以早期基督教艺术是指罗马的地下墓窟(Catacomb)艺术而言,时间约在公元100~420年之间。君士坦丁颁布基督教为国教后,早期的地下艺术便告结束。

  34. (二)特征 • 1、早期建筑极为简陋,在墙上和室顶上,饰以壁画和灰泥制的浮雕,少有圆雕。 • 2、壁画多取材于基督教的圣经,大半用象征性表现手法,故事的细节和环境被省略,人物之间缺乏有机的联系,构图往往重复,形象比较概念化、公式化﹐缺乏运动感和生命感。 • 3、耶稣生平的故事大量出现在艺术上,耶稣被表现成为牧羊人,面部毫无表情。 • 4、风格上大致仍沿用罗马的旧传统,只是比较苦涩呆板。

  35. (三)艺术表现 • 1、建筑 • 四世纪基督教成为合法后,在古罗马长方形的公共会堂“巴西利卡”的基础上发展新型的“巴西利卡式教堂”,它是中世纪教堂的母体。 • 四至六世纪时,巴西利卡式教堂著名的有(均在罗马):

  36. 《圣彼得(St. Peter)大教堂》(约333年建,明细图1、2)。

  37. 《圣马利亚·马佐勒教堂》(432~440年)。

  38. 2、绘画 • 壁画 • 地下墓窟的四壁和顶部画了不少壁画,手法虽然较幼稚,形象却基本是仿照希腊罗马的,比如画成“善良的牧羊人”(镶嵌画,意大利拉文纳,普拉西迪亚陵庙入口上部,约520)的基督、胜利女神式的天使等。还有各种线条组成的圆形或方形图案,中间有花环、鸟类、四足动物,还有四季的象征物作装饰母题(不死鸟、斑鸠、羔羊、鱼等形象都成为基督的象征)。

  39. 早在三世纪初,壁画上就有福音书和旧约故事,具有浓厚的希腊罗马的痕迹。五世纪的画风更强调轮廓线、绘画性和图示性也更强。早在三世纪初,壁画上就有福音书和旧约故事,具有浓厚的希腊罗马的痕迹。五世纪的画风更强调轮廓线、绘画性和图示性也更强。

  40. 镶嵌画 • 早期基督教大量使用镶嵌画装饰教堂内部,使用的材料有彩色石块和彩色玻璃块,因其色彩闪烁神秘又经久不变色,更加强了教堂的神秘感。 • 现存的有罗马的君士坦察圆墓中的装饰壁画,绘有葡萄藤和采集葡萄的场面(葡萄代表耶稣,葡萄藤代表信徒)。

  41. 镶嵌画 • 罗马圣普邓齐安教堂中的壁画,描绘了圣徒为耶稣加冕的场面。耶稣被表现为有权有势的宣教者和世界的新主人。在拉韦纳的一幅镶嵌画《面包和鱼的奇迹》(镶嵌画,意大利拉文纳圣阿波利那里·诺沃教堂,504年)中基督着帝王紫色布披肩,也有相同的形象。

  42. 拜占庭艺术 • (一)特色 • 所谓拜占庭艺术(Byzantine Art),就是指东罗马帝国的艺术。从君士坦丁时代开始,公元330~1453年。拜占庭帝国是宗教政治帝国,其艺术是为了荣耀基督,并表现其神奇而已。 • 大体来说,所有拜占庭的艺术都充满了精神的象征主义。重视心象,不容有写实主义的存在。 • 东罗马帝国被土耳其人灭亡后,拜占庭的艺术则继续在希腊、巴尔干半岛和俄罗斯等地流行。

  43. (二)艺术表现 • 1、建筑 • 拜占庭建筑的中心结构是主穹窿,它控制整个建筑,并用不同形式与辅助拱结合,创造出丰富的空间。 • 早期仍沿用“巴西利卡式”的教堂外,又发展出“集中式”。所谓“集中式”教堂就是采用穹顶,把穹顶支撑在四个或更多的独立支柱上的结构方法。典型代表作是《索菲亚大教堂》(土耳其伊斯坦堡,532~537年查士丁尼时代),它的主要结构是一个巨大的圆顶大厅,体积之庞大,使用材料之珍贵,装饰之华丽,都是空前的。

  44. 经历了726-843年的“破坏圣像运动”之后,教堂又发展为“十字形平面式”式的建筑,今日威尼斯的《圣马可教堂》(建于1063~1094年)可见其踪迹。经历了726-843年的“破坏圣像运动”之后,教堂又发展为“十字形平面式”式的建筑,今日威尼斯的《圣马可教堂》(建于1063~1094年)可见其踪迹。

  45. 有些地方的教堂,在精神表现上,有力求满足各阶层需要的形式。例如,威尼斯教堂上面的灯塔和圆球,是为渔民而作;莫斯科教堂更多彩多姿,如冰淇淋造型的屋顶,是为乡下农民而作(进城看热闹,例如莫斯科圣瓦西里大教堂,1554-60)。有些地方的教堂,在精神表现上,有力求满足各阶层需要的形式。例如,威尼斯教堂上面的灯塔和圆球,是为渔民而作;莫斯科教堂更多彩多姿,如冰淇淋造型的屋顶,是为乡下农民而作(进城看热闹,例如莫斯科圣瓦西里大教堂,1554-60)。
