The Menorah is the seven branched candlestick with cups made like almond-blossoms. Standing in the Jerusalem temple in front of the Holy of Holies, the place where God's presence dwelt, the Menorah became a kind of visible symbol of God's invisible presence. Roger Wagner's 'Menorah' invites an exploration of God's presence, drawing on the familiar local landscape, and the story of the crucifixion. Oil on Canvas. H 157.4 x W 195.9cm.
