The play of light and shadows adds depth and mystery to the scene, evoking a sense of awe and reverence. The attention to detail is remarkable, as every delicate carving on the stone walls is meticulously depicted. This artwork from Ward's collection "Royal Gems from the Galleries of Europe" highlights his mastery in capturing both religious symbolism and architectural beauty.
