About this work

This drawing shows two women in a dimly lit room. One has wings and holds a staff topped with a cross. She’s dressed in flowing robes and points toward the other woman, who kneels in prayer with her hands clasped. A small vase with flowers sits between them, and a book lies open on a stand beside the kneeling woman. The angel’s gesture suggests she’s delivering a message, while the kneeling woman looks down, absorbed. The room’s details—like the stained-glass window and heavy curtains—give it a quiet, sacred feel. This is a drawing made using lithography.
