Colossians 1:15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:… There is in Rome an elegant fresco by Guido — "The Aurora." It covers a lofty ceiling. Looking up at it from the pavement your neck grows stiff, your head dizzy, and the figures indistinct. You soon tire and turn away. The owner of the palace has placed a broad mirror near the floor. You may now sit down before it as at a table, and at your leisure look into the mirror, and enjoy the fresco that is above you. There is no more weariness, nor indistinctness, nor dizziness. Like the Rosplglioso mirror beneath "The Aurora," Christ reflects the glory of the Divine nature to the eye of man.
