Inspired by the true story behind Horatio Spafford’s beloved hymn “It Is Well with My Soul.” After the Great Chicago Fire devastated his business interests, Spafford sent his wife and four daughters ahead by ship; the vessel was struck and his four daughters perished while Anna survived. Her telegram read, “Saved alone.” As Spafford traveled to meet her, he passed the place where the ship went down and wrote the hymn, turning grief toward faith and peace. This engraved wood slatted wall plaque honors that story with a portrait of Horatio Spafford, the Chicago skyline and fire, the ship, and the sea. 150 × 150 mm square; approximately 36.5 mm thick. Natural wood with protective polyurethane finish. Indoor display; wipe gently with a soft cloth.
