The work is very intuitive. The spirit of K Stabrauskas' "Sursum corda", the faith and belief in what he does, has done. The author depicts the figure of an angel, like a veil, like a shadow, but at the same time, there above the whole world, on the roof of the world. It evokes ambiguous thoughts - the sacredness of nature is exalted, or perhaps a premonition of the end. The work is impressive in its size, radiating a strong emotional charge.
