About this work

A large oil painting shows a black-robed monk raising a cross-topped staff and pointing upward while preaching to a gathered crowd in medieval northern dress. Two barefoot children stand at the center of the composition, and a seated older man and a young woman occupy the foreground, with a calm sea visible beyond the hill.
