About this work
Elisha scatters salt into the spring of Jericho to purify the water. From that moment on, drinking the spring water no longer caused deaths or miscarriages as before. In the background, the prophets of Jericho kneel before Elisha. Below the image a reference in Latin to the biblical text in 2 Kings 2:19. This print is part of an album.
