Christian with the Shield of Faith, Taking Leave of His Companions

William Blake, 1824–1827

This is a painting of four ethereal figures walking together with a faint architectural background. The figures are posed gracefully, with flowing garments. The artist uses soft hues of pink, blue, and yellow. In the background, an outline of a grand structure emerges. The delicate application of color and line work creates an otherworldly atmosphere.
