Photograph of the painting 'Flight of the Pagan Deities on the Dawn of Christianity' by Frederick Richard Pickersgill (1820-1900). The painting depicts a clothed woman carrying a child, possibly the Virgin Mary and Christ Child. Around the woman and child, groups of semi-naked individuals appear to flee the scene. There is an identification number in the lower left corner.
