Here the Lord's Prayer and the Ten Commandments share a single sheet, two of the most familiar passages in Christian scripture arranged together as a devotional display. The record dates it to about 1882 and credits the New York engraving firm Rode & Brand, with the sheet published by James Meyer Jr. Scripture pictures of this kind, combining sacred text with decorative engraving, were popular in American homes and Sunday schools in the late nineteenth century, when families often hung religious and moral images in parlors and classrooms. The record does not describe the design in detail, so the two texts themselves are the best guide to what the sheet was meant to convey.
