DescriptionThe figure of Christ, represented by a line drawing, lays at the bottom of a boat and points his right hand up towards a yellow shinning sun, two of his disciples calling to him and gesturing just to the left. Surrounding and layered on top of the drawing are various texts, including the bible verses of the scene depicted, and a poem that reads from top right to the bottom of the image.This record has been reviewed by University Galleries staff but may be incomplete or contain errors.
