DescriptionThe image depicts two figures, one male and one angelic, kneeling on the ground with a large old growth tree placed behind them. The angelic figure is on the left and is positioned up on the knees so as to be the taller of the two figures; the angelic figure bows its head to rest on the head of the male figure. The male figure is on the right and leans onto the leg of the angelic figure with his arms hanging down and the hands clasped together. Rays of light shine down onto the two figures from the upper left.
