Description: On earth, a joyful congregation gathers around its priest. In heaven, saints have become kings and worship God (represented by a Hebrew tetragrammaton) among the angels. Two hands reach to grasp each other in the firmament separating heaven and earth: one from earth, representing hope (“spei” in Latin); the other from heaven, representing desire (“desiderii”).
