The Landauer Altarpiece, All Saints Day, 1511 by Albrecht Dürer
Almighty and Everlasting God, who dost enkindle the flame of Thy love in the hearts of the saints,grant unto us the same faith and power of love; that, as we rejoice in their triumphs we may profit by their examples, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
