Kommt nun, ihr vom Hause Jakob, lasst uns wandeln im Licht des Herrn 

Philipp Veit created this drawing entitled, "Kommt nun, ihr vom Hause Jakob, lasst uns wandeln im Licht des Herrn" or "Come now, house of Jacob, let us walk in the light of the Lord" using pen and brown ink with gray wash over pencil. The composition appears as a tightly grouped congregation, with the figures' gestures and gazes directing our attention both upwards and inward. Veit skillfully employs the wash to create tonal variations, which, combined with the pen lines, give the figures a sculptural presence and a sense of emotional weight. The drawing could be interpreted as Veit's engagement with themes of religious reform and spiritual awakening prevalent during his time. Veit seems to challenge the viewer to consider their own place within this community of faith. The effect of the carefully applied gray wash against the starkness of the pen lines serves to highlight the interplay between light and shadow, both literally and metaphorically. This functions not only aesthetically but also as part of a larger cultural and philosophical discourse.
