The Fourth Triad 10-11-12: Circles spread out like waves formed by a pebble thrown into a smooth body of water. Isaac with his son Jacob, and the struggle between Jacob and the angel. Joseph in prison, Moses lifted out of the water, Hagar and Ismaël lost in the desert, the exodus from Egypt , the Hebrews in Sinaï. Jerusalem – Moses and the Commandments, Joshua halting the sun, and the Cedars of Lebanon in the background. The fifth Triad 13-14-15: A great semicircle unites the three works. Three small semicircles cut across the three canvases. Joshua and the sun, David King, the building of the Temple , Solomon, Ahiram, Samson bringing down the temple of the Philistines, Susanna bathing. The sixth Triad 16-17-18: The Immaculate Conception Joachim crushing the serpent's head. In the corner to the right Anne in motherhood, holding the infant Virgin Mary, then Mary growing up, and a Holy Virgin filling the canvas; a great oval form unites the three works, with a rain of flowers and of angels. The six following canvases are consecrated to Mary. The Annunciation. This is the second canvas, a work of cosmic conception. The Holy Virgin is shown on her knees before the angel Gabriel, who has come to announce to her the great event. In the third canvas we see the Visitation, with Mary in child welcomed by Elisabeth, also in child with John the Baptist. There is a door reminiscent of the Holy Cross. There is a jar of water and a shower of flowers from Paradise , with the tiled floor of the room in the forefront. >> Fourth
