Christ Entering Bruxelles

One of my all time favorite paintings is Christ Entering Brussels in 1889 by James Ensor. An image which for me captures the continuing importance of religion in the chaos of modern life.

I think Kanye West's "Devil in a New Dress" or at least the beat is a perfect compliment to the visual.
