Three winged cherubs, each carrying one emblem, set this picture apart on the board: a cross for faith, a heart for love and an anchor for hope, with the German words *Glaube, Liebe, Hoffnung* lettered beneath. The trio draws on 1 Corinthians 13:13, where Paul names faith, hope and love as the enduring virtues, while the anchor echoes Hebrews 6:19, which describes hope as an anchor of the soul. Devotional pictures like this circulated widely in German-speaking Christian households, where playful putti offered a gentle way to teach children these core virtues. The combination of image and text is worth noticing, since each symbol is paired with its German name.
