“Skemp” Divine Mercy Image

This popular image is seen daily on TV in the EWTN Chapel.  This image was commissioned to represent Jesus as walking through the door in the Upper Room and to have the rays going out in all directions.  It was painted on wood in 1982 by Robert Skemp.  The original painting was then given to Blessed Pope John Paul II who, in turn, then gave it to the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy in Tanzania.
