Muujiza wa Mikate na Samaki (La multiplication des pains)

James Tissot · 1886–1894
Brooklyn Museum, New York

Umati umeketi katika safu ndefu zilizopinda kwenye matuta ya kijani ya mteremko wa kilima, safu juu ya safu, hadi kileleni. Tissot aliuchora karibu kama mandhari, na vipande vya miamba ya kijivu na bonde jeupe hafifu likifunguka upande wa kushoto.

Katikati ya mteremko wanafunzi wanatembea kando ya safu wakiwa na vikapu vikubwa vichwani na mikononi, wakigawa chakula. Maumbo madogo yanabeba vikapu hadi juu kabisa ya kilima.
