My youth group only includes six kids today, but we go to the Denver Art Museum anyway. We need to leave by 3:15, though it's already 3:20 and we are on our way to the last stop. We arrive at our destination, yet another piece of religious art, and gather around to hear about it. It looks like a toaster on a pedestal. Correction: it is a toaster on a pedestal. Our tour guide asks us what we think the stuff around the toaster is, and we all guess things like the sun and fire, all the while knowing perfectly well that it's a halo. Almost all the other paintings were pictures of Mary and Baby Jesus, but this doesn't look anything like those paintings. The toaster turns out to have a piece of toast in it depicting a different saint or important religious person. It really just looks like a toaster on a pedestal. It's the only American religious art piece we've seen today. Leave it to Americans to depict religion with food.
That is really cool! I want to see it.
