Good Friday
An accompaniment to your study of this sculpture is Ruht Vohl, (Rest well) the final chorus from Bach's St John Passion.
Good Friday is NOT a federal holiday in the US, making America one of the few Western nations that doesn’t formally recognize it. But 12 states observe it as a state holiday (Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, New Jersey, North Carolina, North Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, and — thank goodness — Florida.)
