In this high relief sculpture, it is evident that the artist, American artist Niki Covington, possess a deft artistic touch and style that harkens back to the Old Masters, expertly conveying the power of the medium and mastery of the craft. As the artist states: "This sculpture represents symbolically and figuratively through the call of Peter and Andrew, our continual struggle and triumph to forsake all and hearken to the Master. Embedded in the composition are sacred geometries that speak to the reciprocating role of Peter who will take the place of Christ as the leader of the church, as well as ideas that relate to ascension." Signed and dated bottom right corner.
