This painting depicts a passage from the Acts of the Apostles (8-26-40) in which the
apostle Philip encounters an Ethiopian eunuch on the road between Jerusalem and
Gaza. The eunuch, treasurer to Candace, Queen of Ethiopia was returning from
Jerusalem where he had gone to worship. Philip saw him seated in his chariot, reading
aloud from the writings of the prophet Isaiah, and engaged him in conversation.

crucifixion of Christ. Upon arriving at a stream, the eunuch asks to be baptized.); © Lawrence Steigrad Fine Arts, New York
