Illustration til "The Lord's Prayer" 1863

Lorenz Frølich's 1863 illustration "Illustration til "The Lord's Prayer" depicts a scene of divine intervention and the power of prayer. It portrays a gathering of angels in the heavens with a single angel reaching down to a group of people on earth who are desperately praying. The contrasting light and shadow of the two realms emphasize the divide between the earthly struggles and the heavenly hope. This powerful image speaks to the themes of faith, salvation, and the transformative power of prayer.
