This major work by John Bayton depicts Abraha, and Isaac at the moment of sacrifice, the ram waiting trapped in the thicket, and the world on fire with horror. It is a large painting in oil on canvas. It is without a doubt a significant Australian religious work. Father Bayton, who was the Chairman of the Board of Govenors at St Micahels Grammar School from 1987 to 1988.
