About the Artwork
This sacred composition portrays the glorious feast of Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit descended upon the Apostles gathered in prayer with the Blessed Virgin Mary, as recorded in Acts 2:1–4. At the centre of the composition, Saint Mary sits in quiet devotion beneath the radiant dove, the traditional symbol of the Holy Spirit, while tongues of fire rest upon the Apostles, signifying the divine gift that empowered them to proclaim the Gospel to all nations.
Painted in 2000 by Ethiopian Christian artist and iconographer K. Haile Maskel, the artwork is inspired by the ancient artistic traditions of the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church. Through vibrant colours, sacred symbolism, and harmonious composition, it expresses themes of divine grace, unity, spiritual renewal, and the enduring presence of the Holy Spirit within the Church.
Faithfully reproduced as a museum-quality Giclée print, every detail of the original painting is preserved with exceptional colour, clarity, and longevity, creating a timeless work of devotional beauty.
Whether displayed in a prayer corner, church, study, or home, this artwork serves as a lasting reminder of the Holy Spirit's guidance, the unity of the Apostles, and the living faith of the Church.
