The Descent of the Holy Ghost,
oil on panel, 31.4 x 30.5 cm, framed
The present composition depicts the less frequently painted subject of ‘The Descent of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost’ (see Acts 2:1–4): ‘When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.’
