Copernicus

[reddoss]

I became interested in astronomy as a child, and my Father being Polish, I developed an interested in Copernicus.

Since then I have always liked this painting by Jan Matejko entitled 'Conversations with God'

May be not the best painting in the world, but I do like the subject matter.

It is certainly a very evocative painting, capturing the spirit of the time. Lots going on in it to capture the eye. I like it.
