One of Richard\'s first paintings, this entails the story of the world\'s connection to God. Mankind had fallen when the chain begins and things got worse and worse until the flood came. Each link shows a chain in the story. The flood is symbolized by the blue chain, for example. The world grew worse until finally Jesus came and cleansed the chain. Satan puts out false chains or false religions that lack the cleansing power of the cross. Only the cross sets us free. 8.5 x 11 inches print.
