I'm hunting for depictions of the prophet Isaiah. Anyone know of any? Please attribute the artist.

So far I've found...

Isaiah from an 18th Century Russian Icon


Isaiah By Michaelangelo


The Prophet Isaiah by Raphael


Isaiah Writes of Christ's Birth by Harry Anderson


A friend of mine mentioned that there are very few depictions of Isaiah, even though he was a pretty important guy. I didn't really believe him, but when I started looking I realized there really are very few. Hoping to find some that he hasn't seen before.

Whether we write or speak or do but look

Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.

Fernando Pessoa, 1918
