Faith is a 1559 ink by Philip Galle, a Renaissance work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting, titled "Faith," depicts a large crowd gathered in a church. The scene is filled with people dressed in robes, some standing and others kneeling or sitting. In the center, a man stands on a platform, holding a book and addressing the crowd. The atmosphere appears solemn, with the crowd's attention focused on the speaker. The church's architecture is visible in the background, featuring columns and arches. The overall mood is one of reverence and contemplation.
