Mysteries Of The Rosary - Tumblr Posts

It's a tie between the 3rd of the Sorrowful Mysteries, The Crowning With Thorns, the 5th of the Glorious Mysteries, The Coronation, and the 4th Glorious Mystery, The Assumption. I like these three because when I say a Hail Mary, I imagine it adds a thorn to Jesus' crown, a star to Mary's Coronation, and a flower to the painting depicting Mary's Assumption. These are my favorite depictions - sadly I couldn't figure out the artist for the Sorrowful Mystery, but the Coronation painting was done by Diego Velázquez, and the Assumption by Juan de Jesus Munera Ochoa.

Hey Catholics!! Reblog with your favorite mystery of the Rosary and your favorite depiction of it!!!

My favorite mystery is the second one of the Joyful Mysteries, The Visitation. I just love the complete and absolute joy that the Virgin Mary and St Elizabeth feel when they meet (as well as St John, I mean the kid freaking jumped for joy in St Elizabeth's womb he was so happy). All that joy is just impalpable and almost unmatched.

And here is my favorite depiction of it, by Amber Knorr.
