Nice manip.
There is an inscription on the cross but I can only make out the last words, '... vers les montagnes.'
Can you identify the artist, please?
Thanks Madi, looks like Col de la Croix, Switzerland.

'Je leve les yeux vers les montagnes' - although Alice is looking down from the cross.
Not Eugene Delacroix?Bob, it looks more like Cold de la Croix
Thanks for the info, cruelone.I am the artist. Was on vacation at the col de la crox (well found Madiosi) and saw the potential of that cross there. Added the figures from images I found on the net. I can't read the inscription either bobinder.
Psalm 121.1 'I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills' - no doubt pious travellers would know what follows,Thanks Madi, looks like Col de la Croix, Switzerland.

Don't worry Cruelone. those having the discussions are often mystified also!True, but it's only a question in recent Bible translations - I don't know how ancient that inscription is,
but if it's 19th century or earlier, travellers would have remembered the next line as a statement, not a question.
(Cruelone must already be mystified at the discussions we have on the Forums! )
