Hi all! This is an old oil about 5ft tall. It has been passed through my family. The story goes that it was in the Johnstown flood and from a church that was destroyed. I know it has damage, but trying to get any info I can on it. I hope the uploaded link worked. Thanks for any help!!

@clj5083,
Looking it up, it would appear that this is probably John of the Cross (1542 - 91)

@clj5083,
No problem.

If you press 'quote' on my pic post, you will see that I simply stuck [Img] at one end, and [/img] at the other.
The bit in the middle was acquired by right clicking your image and choosing the "open image" option.
