Jesus, son of Mary, was over thirty and had never been married. He had a close relationship with a teenager named John. After he died, John took care of his friend’s mother to the end of her life. Images of John usually show him as a beardless youth, sometimes with a cup, an eagle, a book or pen. Other images show him as a very old man on the Isle of Patmos. Paintings of the last supper show him leaning against his friend, Jesus. At the crucifixion he is shown with Mary at the foot of the cross. In portrayal of events immediately after the crucifixion he and Mary are shown together as the chief mourners. |
