Ambrose on baptism as Athletic preparation: "You are anointed as if an athlete of Christ; as if a wrestler about to fight a match, you hvae agreed to fight your opponent. The wrestler has something to hope for; where there is a contest, there is a crown. You contend in the world, but you are crowned by Christ."

So far so good. A little thick and academic, not quite understanding the visual art aspects, but historical quotes and facts are fascinating.
