About this work

Christ stands on the shore of the Sea of Tiberias. Christ commands his disciples in the boat to haul in the nets. There is so much fish in them that they have difficulty dragging the net into the boat. Peter comes through the water to Christ. Letters are placed at various elements of the scene. The print is part of an album.
