Interpretation: This painting represents the belief of "Manifest Destiny" as a whole, the angel holding what appears to be the Bible symbolizes the "expansion" of Christianity. Since the angel is accompanying the travelers, then it is safe to assume that the travelers want "Manifest Destiny" to expand too, the angel is simply the travelers' belief, the fact that the angel is so large may also indicate the "strength" in this belief
