This work is located at Aboyne Lodge School, St Albans. The subject derives from the ancient biblical Book of Tobit, where Tobias is sent on a mission by his father. Along his way, he is offered guidance by a stranger, later revealed to be the angel Raphael, who teaches him to pay attention to nature around him, to listen to the songs of the trees, the mountains, the river.
