Alvaro Pirez d'Evora, 1410-1434, The Resurrected Christ, Museum of Fine Arts, Budapest, Early Renaissance.

Look at the the Patina. One of the picture of christ that appeals to me. Taken at Musuem of fine arts, Budapest.

Duccio (attributed) 1255-1315, The Coronation of the Virgin

The way the paint is peeling off makes the piece even more beautiful i think. Also looks like Virgin mary is tearing doesnt it? Taken at Museum of Fine Arts, Budapest.

Vaszary Janos, Golgota, 1930s

Again a powerful modern interpretation! And I like how all the colours blends in so well. Taken at Hungarian National Gallery.

Vaszary Janos, Raising of Lazarus, 1912

Taken at Hungarian National Gallery. This is definitely my favourite modern art piece on a religious theme. Modern art seldom depicts religious theme in manner that fascinates me. This certainly does.
