The following year, in 1661, the same priest and his wife donated the epitaphium on the north wall in the chancel. This work was done by the same wood carver who carved the altarpiece, but the pictures were painted by a Norwegian artist. The largest figures are of Adam and Eve after the fall of man. The symbols of hope and trust are depicted here, too.
The top picture is of a pelican plucking flesh from it’s chest to feed it’s chicks which symbolizes self-sacrifice. The motives for the pictures are the soul’s yearning for heaven and reconciliation with Christ, which is also clarified by the scripture below.
