From the Art Institute of Chicago record

Modeled after a painting by Paolo Veronese (which is presumed lost), this engraving originally appeared in an album of reproductive prints. This publication copied paintings then in the collection of Dutch merchant Gerard Reynst. In the center of Visscher’s startling composition, Christ ascends to Heaven with arms outstretched. Cherubim—winged angelic attendants of God—peer through the clouds, while below three cherubim support an unfurled banner. It proclaims, ego et pater unum sumus (I and the Father are one). The Holy Ghost completes the Trinity, flying above the Savior’s head in the form of a dove.
