About this work

Christ stands among his disciples and tells them about the coming of the Holy Spirit, the adoration of the cross, his ascension and the expulsion of the devil. Here used as an image of Christ's appearance to the apostles, after his resurrection. Letters are placed at various elements in the image. Above the image a title. Below it six lines of verse and a reference to John 20: 19-21. The print forms part of an album.
