Summary

Four winged angels are in the night sky. Two on each side, all facing towards the centre of the picture, and with their hands held together in prayer and their heads bowed. In the centre of them there is a large star and several smaller stars in the sky. Beneath them is a barn with visible supports. Lines around the barn suggest a type of glowing.
