About this work

Illustration of the last line of the Lord's Prayer: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. The Trinity is worshipped by men and angels. God the Father sits on a globe with his crucified son Christ on his lap. Above them the dove of the Holy Spirit. Around the globe the symbols of the four evangelists (the apocalyptic beasts) and music-making angels. Below the image this part of the Lord's Prayer in Latin and a reference to the biblical text in Matt. 6:13. This print is part of an album.
