I wrote my undergraduate dissertation on this topic: Investigating the influences on 17th C. Spanish Art depicting visions and religious experiences.
Have been asked by the mods to post the dissertation separately from the artwork so happy to oblige -

Thanks for contributing both to this community and to the academic study of art.
Beautiful selection to highlight on your post.
Thanks! It was fun to write at the time. I was doing a double major of History of Art and Philosophy but the HoA was definitely inflating my grade average!
What if this was the equivalent of like a 17th century shit post?
Cano did a good job of convincing the church he was being sincere! Probably would have been excommunicated or executed if they suspected him of herasy.
Edit: he personally described his work as being “edifying” lol
We’ve always been weird, huh?
Sexual repression’s a helluva drug
They were definitely geeking out on something! I had this piece of visionary poetry in my dissertation:
I entered - where - I did not know,
Yet when I found that I was there,
Though where I was I did not know,
Profound and subtle things I learned;
Nor can I say what I discerned,
For I remained uncomprehending,
All knowledge transcending.

NB “ecstasy” as we know it did not exist in the 16th Century 😂
Hey my man gotta explain the white stains on his shirt to the church !
…painting did it.
She has a very good aim. Was that one of her miracles?
The most underrated movie ever.
I can’t remember if I stumbled across it at a video store or caught it on cable or something, but even though I was a KitH fan I had no idea they were making a movie. Absolutely love it though and even with familiar elements and some returning characters it didn’t feel like just a rehash of the show. I was bummed to learn (from the 2022 “Comedy Punks” documentary) that they were totally miserable making it and there was bad blood between Dave and everyone else.
Curious what the christ - child’s face looks like in this situation.
I’m imagining something like:
how does this baby look like its 50?
Apropos since 17th century babies looked like tiny adults from what we can tell from paintings from the time at least.
This is why Art History is entertaining.
I kind of want to fit a parabola to that stream of milk to check if the physics is correct.
i think it’s miraculous laminar flow
Well i didnt knew that . I thought that this kink was pretty recent.
Check out some ancient pottery, bath walls, and a lot of art to see that most sex acts and kinks have been round for millenia.
Damn we just re invent the wheel fuck!
Rule 34 was really just copypasta to start with.
Uhhh…
What velocity does the milk exit the nipple with to be able to have that trajectory?
From ChatGPT:
Me: Water exits a nozzle at coordinate (0, 1.7m) and hits the ground at (2m, 0). Assume the water exits the nozzle at 90 degree (i.e. straight to the right). How can we determine the speed of the water?
(here I made some rough assumptions based on the image, and assumed that her feet were at (0, 0)
Answer: The speed of the water exiting the nozzle can be determined using the principles of projectile motion.

Determine the time of flight:
The water is projected horizontally from a height of 1.7 meters and hits the ground at 2 meters horizontally. The vertical motion is governed by the equation: [ y = y_0 + v_{y0} t - \frac{1}{2} g t^2 ] Here, ( y_0 = 1.7 ) meters, ( v_{y0} = 0 ) m/s (since there is no initial vertical velocity), and ( g = 9.8 ) m/s² (acceleration due to gravity).
The water hits the ground when ( y = 0 ): [ 0 = 1.7 - \frac{1}{2} \times 9.8 \times t^2 ] Solving for ( t ): [ 1.7 = 4.9 t^2 ] [ t^2 = \frac{1.7}{4.9} ] [ t = \sqrt{\frac{1.7}{4.9}} \approx 0.59 \text{ seconds} ]

Determine the horizontal velocity:
The horizontal distance covered is 2 meters. Since horizontal velocity ( v_x ) is constant (there is no horizontal acceleration), the distance can be given by: [ x = v_x t ] Here, ( x = 2 ) meters and ( t \approx 0.59 ) seconds: [ v_x = \frac{2}{0.59} \approx 3.39 \text{ m/s} ]
Therefore, the speed of the water exiting the nozzle is approximately 3.39 m/s.
