Allegory on prayer, Jan Caspar Philips, 1744 Canvas Print

A woman kneels in front of a bible that has been opened, in her hand a censer, which symbolizes the prayers that rise to heaven. It is accompanied by personifications of the three divine virtues. Hope (Spes), leaning on an anchor, indicates the nursing Love (Caritas), to the divine rays of light from the sky. Faith (Fides) looks up to heaven in worship. On the left in the foreground a skeleton with a snake and the apple, which refer to the Fall. In the background on a hill the temple at Jerusalem. Right in the foreground a tablet showing the title in Dutch.
