Jesus points to the birds of the air, showing how even they find a place to rest. In contrast, the Son of Man lived without a home of His own. This painting reflects His sacrifice and His invitation for us to seek treasures in heaven rather than security on earth.

The Savior leans against a tree, illustrating the words of Matthew 8:20. Though creation itself was His, He chose a path without earthly home, so we might find a home with Him eternally.

Jesus watches a fox return to its den, illustrating His own words from Matthew 8:20. The fox has a place of safety, yet the Son of Man embraced a life of sacrifice, trusting completely in His Father’s will.
