About this work
The first day of Creation: God the Father hovers above the earth with outstretched arms, separating light from darkness and day from night. On the left stands the sun and on the right the moon. Above God the Father is the tetragram. At the bottom, a reference to the Bible text in Latin. This print is part of an album.
