Product Description
This painting depicts two scenes; that of a handcart company trekking west, and their parting glance of the Nauvoo temple, as seen from across the Mississippi. This image of the temple would have been the last memory they had of their beautiful city and the temple they labored to build. The company is not alone in their journey, as they are accompanied and guarded by angels along the way. We can echo their example in moving forward joyfully despite loss and hardship, having faith that heaven is not too far away.
