"Trumpeting Angel" is a fresco attributed to the Early Renaissance Italian painter Fra Angelico, also known as Guido di Pietro. This artwork is part of a larger series of frescoes that adorn the walls of the San Marco Convent in Florence, Italy, where Fra Angelico lived and worked as a Dominican friar. The frescoes at San Marco are considered some of Fra Angelico's most significant works, showcasing his mastery of color, his devout religious sensibility, and his innovative approach to perspective and space.

The "Trumpeting Angel" specifically is believed to be part of the fresco cycle that depicts scenes from the Last Judgment. In these scenes, angels often appear as messengers and executors of God's will, signaling the end of times and the resurrection of the dead. The angel in this fresco is typically depicted in a dynamic pose, with a trumpet to its lips, symbolizing the call to the souls to rise for judgment. The use of vibrant colors and the delicate rendering of the angel's features are characteristic of Fra Angelico's style, which combines the spiritual intensity of Gothic art with the emerging naturalism of the Renaissance.

While the exact date of the "Trumpeting Angel" fresco is not definitively known, the San Marco frescoes were created in the 1430s and 1440s, a period during which Fra Angelico was actively working in Florence. The frescoes were commissioned by Cosimo de' Medici, the wealthy Florentine patron, who had a particular interest in the San Marco Convent as a center of religious and intellectual life.

As with many of Fra Angelico's works, the "Trumpeting Angel" is not only a testament to the artist's technical skill but also reflects the deeply spiritual and contemplative life he led as a Dominican friar. His work continues to be studied and admired for its beauty and its capacity to convey profound religious themes through art. The frescoes at San Marco remain an enduring legacy of Fra Angelico's contribution to the art of the Italian Renaissance and are a focal point for visitors to the convent, which is now a museum.
