faithcecelia Posted July 16, 2011 Author Share Posted July 16, 2011 Here we are, a reminder of our early forerunners [img]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k216/ruthbale/10carme2.jpg[/img] Note the striped mantles, meant to represent the marks left by Elijah's chariot wheels! This was changed to the current white fairly early due to the common belief that stripes were the marks of the Devil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The author has written a number of books on colour in religion. Its a translation from French so a little 'jumpy' in places but very interesting.
