The Ark has Landed . . .

on the Wall of St. Marks Episc. Church.
The painting of the Ark landing is on the
stairwell wall (2nd landing) of this Louisville, Kentucky (USA) Church.
It is an amazing painting with animals ranging in size from the
Elephant to ants coming off the ark and moving all around the walls.
It was painted so as to look like the Ark crashed through the walls,
and the animals are disembarking the craft. There is a Billy Goat
on the inside wall of the Children's area; he has a real prayer book
in his mouth, eating away. Imaginative and wonderful sight.

(Wish I knew the name of the painter.
I'll do some research and see if I can find the artist's name.)
