- from our Affiliates
This design features a painting by the Anglo-American artist John Singleton Copley (1738–1815). It shows Jesus Christ ascending to Heaven after his resurrection: Christians believe that he would be exalted as Lord, sitting at the right hand of God. The apostles of Jesus are on the ground, raising their hands in prayer, as they watch him ascend. There are also some winged angels standing nearby. The original art was painted in 1775.
