About this work
Four angels hold back the four winds with their swords. In the center, an angel places the seal of God on the forehead of a member of a tribe of Israel. Above in the clouds, an angel with a cross. Below the image, a reference in Latin to the biblical text in Revelation 7. This print is part of an album.
