Eight lithographs of illustrations to the Lord's Prayer by Flaxman were published after his death by Richard Lane in 1835. The original drawing by Flaxman for one of these, entitled `But Deliver us from Evil', was recorded with Chris Powney in 1979 (see David Bindman (ed.),
John Flaxman R.A., exhibition catalogue, 1979, no.146, p.123, ill.). A second titled `Lead us not into Temptation' was in an exhibition at the Heim Gallery in 1976 (see Heim Gallery, John Flaxman, exhibition catalogue, 1976, no.25).
