Description: This print by Roy Williams depicts a modest Christian worship house. The door is open, and the seats are arranged as if a service is about to begin or has just ended. A fireplace warms the church, and a path out the door snakes through a field. Dr. John T. Biggers taught students the craft of printmaking while he was a professor at Texas Southern University.
