The print showcases an exquisite illustration from Edwin Dalton's renowned collection, "Art Pictures from the Old Testament". In this scene, we witness a solemn moment of devotion as an unidentified figure delicately holds an incense burner in their hands. The fragrant smoke rises gracefully towards the heavens, symbolizing prayers ascending to God's ears. This powerful image reminds us of the significance of incense in religious ceremonies throughout history. The meticulous detail captured by the anonymous English School artist brings life to every stroke on this engraving.
