The Assumption in Art and a Sweet Little Treat

This beautiful paiting is titled The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin by Peter Paul Rubens. I just love how this old master depicted the Assumption here. Can you imagine the agony our lady had to endure without her beloved Jesus being with her for the duration of her earthly life? I can only imagine the  joy with which she must have been anticpating being reunited with our Lord. In this painting her eyes are looking towards heaven and her hand is resting across her loving mothers heart as if she can hardly contain the joy in her heart!!!
