Living Picture
Fresco comes to life at CSB campus
Faculty, students and staff gathered at Saint Benedict's Monastery Sacred Heart Chapel Friday, Dec. 10, to recreate the famous painting "School of Athens" by Renaissance master Raphael. The "living picture" was the brainchild of Tony Cunningham, a philosophy professor at CSB and SJU. Tony and his wife Mickey came up with the idea over the summer and have been planning the recreation and recruiting participants throughout fall semester.
Among those who volunteered their talents for the project was Saint Ben's President MaryAnn Baenninger, who played the role of Hypatia. In all, 39 faculty, students and staff worked together to create the "tableau vivant" (living picture).
Take a look at the video to see the entire process (be sure to have your volume up):
