The top panel showcases a heavenly scene with God and Christ presiding over a cityscape where individuals engage in prayer. Below, a dramatic portrayal depicts the devil bound to a globe while figures struggle to free themselves from his grasp. This piece explores the themes of faith, power, and the struggle against evil, offering viewers a visual interpretation of a central Christian prayer.
