Coalville Tabernacle: Paintings

These paintings were originally painted on the tabernacle's ceilings. When the tabernacle was taken down, they were carefully removed and are now placed on a wall of the chapel, visible from the stand.


Visible there are (from left to right) John Taylor, Brigham Young, Joseph Smith, someone unknown, and Wilford Woodruff. I'm not sure who the unknown man is. Anyone want to fill me in?

    That "unknown man" is the Patriarch, Hyrum Smith. (See this etching which appears to have been the template for the artist: https://collections.library.yale.edu/catalog/2001069).
