Angel with Tobias is a 1902 oil by Jacek Malczewski, held at National Museum in Kraków.
This painting depicts a serene landscape with a village in the background, featuring a few buildings and trees. In the foreground, two figures stand on a dirt path: a young boy in a hat and dark jacket, and a tall, winged figure beside him, likely an angel. The angel's wings are rendered in soft, feathery brushstrokes, while the boy's clothing is depicted in more muted tones. The overall palette is subdued, with earthy tones dominating the scene. The artist's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and atmosphere, drawing the viewer's eye to the central figures. For more works by this artist, explore the art of Jacek Malczewski.
