The Book of Job: Pl. 18, And my Servant Job shall pray for you

William Blake

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a scene from "The Book of Job". A man in a long robe with outstretched arms stands in front of a stone wall. Two figures kneel on either side of him. Behind them, a mountain rises under a radiant sun. Two groups of angels are drawn on either side. Text at the top reads, "Also the Lord accepted Job". At the bottom, it says, "And my Servant Job shall pray for you" and "And the Lord turned the captivity of Job when he prayed for his Friends". An open book and quill pen are drawn at the bottom.
