Senior Rector Erik Gerhard Schytte, who served at Hol during the period 1761-1776, presented the parish with an altarpiece, which still adorns the church today. It is a typical 18th century style altarpiece. Profiled mouldings and pilasters (recessed columns) divide the altarpiece into several image fields. The horizontal cornice and pilasters are marbled - painted to imitate authentic marble. The lowermost image field (the predella) depicts the burial of Jesus Christ. On the main field, one finds a rendering of the Last Supper, flanked by Moses and Aaron. The uppermost field depicts the Ascension. Various things are inscribed on the altarpiece, such as who it was given from, the year 1766 and a psalm: "I will wash mine hands in innocency: so will I compass thine altar, O Lord" (Psalm 26.6). The altarpiece was most likely executed by a German man named Gottfried Ezekiel (ca. 1719-1798). He was an altarpiece maker who came from a town in the Østersjø region called Kønigsberg (now the Russian city of Kaliningrad). He obtained a certificate as master painter in Bergen in 1744. Then in 1751 he travelled to Northern Norway, where he painted a series of different altarpieces over the following years.
