The Altar triptych in Herbsleben

Altarbild in Herbsleben

"The representations in the triptych are not only simple illustrations to biblical stories; rather has the artist tried like a preacher to transfer the events into our time.

Examples for this are the representation of an embryo in the creation picture, the crucifixion picture references to the recent past and in the holy communion picture witnesses of Christian faith stand beside these days personalities, which have particularly impressed the artistby what they have done.

The biblical way of mankind is shown from the creation up to that great holy communion,in which Christ himself will be a host and a gift in bread and wine."

Pastor Reinhard Kloss
