Passcode: 755359

The images we have selected to illustrate our festival theme are the starting point forobservation and contemplative consideration. How can spiritual science add a cognitive dimension to the aesthetic appeal of this art? The Easter events, that Rudolf Steiner again and again referred to as the Mystery of Golgotha, invite us to understand the Death and Resurrection in connection with the unfinished evolution of the whole of humanity. What is the physical body, originally created in the Image of God? What happened when we left Paradise? What is the new connection with the Image of the Divine?

Art Gallery Visit

From 9 April until  31 July the exhibition of Raphael’s works at the National Gallery,  will almost certainly include the Crucifixion.  It is normally part of the general collection, and can be seen free of charge.  For the exhibition there will be an entry fee.  The lecture on Good Friday will be illustrated with an image of this picture, and it is not necessary to participate in the gallery visit on that day.

If you wish to join this visit please book your entrance ticket individually
