About this work
Some men lower a paralyzed man on his stretcher through a hole in the roof to the feet of Christ. Christ forgives the man's sins and heals him. People stand in the building and in the doorway. Below the image, a Latin reference to the biblical text in Luke 5:18. This print is part of an album.
