About this work

This painting shows two winged figures in bright red robes and gold armor, standing side by side. One holds a sword and a golden cup, while the other has a staff and a small round object. Behind them, a cloudy sky holds a floating figure with a book. The ground below has scattered sheep and a few small buildings. The figures look like angels, but their clothes and armor mix old and bold styles. The writing at the top is in a language that isn’t Latin, which might hint at where this came from. If you like this mix of bold colors and religious scenes, check out Impressionism.
