"Wall Hanging of Santa Barbara" is a 1936 drawing by E. Boyd (1855-1995) that depicts a female figure kneeling before a stylized tower and a chalice with a cross. The artwork uses a simple, stylized design and a muted palette of browns and grays. The female figure, with her long, flowing robe and delicate features, evokes a sense of spirituality and reverence.
