Original - Illustration of Psalm 23 from The Sunday at Home, 1880.
Reason
A fine example of Victorian religious artwork, of the type that might be hung up in a religious home. Also, when I was searching for Psalm 23 online as part of my quest to identify it, I discovered this appears to be the best illustration for the Psalm available pretty much anywhere. Even commercial products are of far less artistic merit.

So... I think this image fills a very valuable niche.

Articles in which this image appears
