Earlier this week I received a link to a very unusual piece of art. It is a picture depicting Washington, DC with a slew of historically important people from our nation and what role they played in the pass as well as the present. When you scroll your mouse over each individual and symbol in the painting, a magnified view of the selected area appears on the right-hand side of the page giving you a description of the person and why they are included. I am proud to say that Thomas Payne is one of over 40 people highlighted in the work of art.
While the painting is religious in nature, I think everyone will find the site interesting and informative. Take a few moments and explore the picture and see if you can find all of the symbols the artist chose to include.
The following is the text from the e-mail that came with the link:
Powerful New Piece of Art…..
McNaughton: “One Nation Under God”
As you run your cursor over each person, their name and a brief description will be revealed. This may be the most timely and powerful new piece of art that Jon McNaughton has done. It has over 40 patriotic heroes speaking to us from the dust as Jesus Christ holds the US Constitution. See if you can identify each of the patriots. There is a link to the detailed description of the 57 symbols and an interview with Jon.
