Transfiguration (1535) by Giovanni Girolamo Savoldo (1480-1548) is a vintage fine art Renaissance painting featuring Jesus Christ with light shining down on him with a beautiful aura surrounding him. Jesus and three of his apostles, Peter, James, John, go to a mountain (the Mount of Transfiguration) to pray. On the mountain, Jesus begins to shine with bright rays of light. Then the prophets Moses and Elijah appear next to him and he speaks with them. Jesus is then called "Son" by a voice in the sky, assumed to be God the Father, as in the Baptism of Jesus.
