From the NY Times: 

At Lindsay Gallery, charts drawn on rolls of oilcloth by a Pentecostal minister, the Rev. Samuel David Phillips (1890-1973), illustrate sermons in a naïve hand but with plenty of preacherly imperative. You imagine the members of his flock sitting bolt upright in their pews after gazing at “Rome,” which depicts a bloody crucifixion, the flaying of St. Bartholomew and a pack of lions feasting on martyrs in the Colosseum.

This chart by the late Rev. Samuel David Phillips will be donated to the permanent collection of the Tubman Museum in Macon GA. Macon is the home town of Rev. Phillips.

Title: "Angels' Call" circa 1960
