Abraham is visited by three angels from God, who come to him to announce the approaching birth of his son Isaac. Two of the angels sit at Abraham's table and the third angel stands beside the table. Abraham stands before the angels, with his head slightly bowed and with his right hand on his chest, in a gesture of awe and reverence. Abraham's wife Sarah looks through the door in the background with a smile on her face. Artwork by
