Sala ya Bwana (Le "Pater Noster")

James Tissot · 1886–1894
Brooklyn Museum, New York

Yesu amesimama juu ya kilima akiwa na joho refu jeupe, mikono yake imefunguliwa kwa upana, na anazungumza na kundi dogo la wanafunzi walioketi nyasini kumzunguka. Nyuma yake kuna mji wenye kuta, wenye paa bapa na minara, katika mwanga mdogo wa jioni.

Tissot aliwachora wanafunzi wakiwa na vitambaa vyeupe vichwani na majoho ya kawaida yenye milia; mmoja aliye mbele, anayeonekana kwa nyuma, ana nywele nyeusi za kipilipili na koti la kahawia. Mikono yao imeinuliwa au imeunganishwa wanaposikiliza.
