"Agar et l'Ange" is a notable painting by the Dutch Golden Age painter Nicolaes Pieterszoon Berchem, who was renowned for his pastoral and biblical scenes. This particular work depicts the biblical story of Hagar and the Angel from the Book of Genesis, a theme that has been a subject of artistic representation across various periods. In the biblical narrative, Hagar, the Egyptian handmaid of Sarah and concubine of Abraham, flees into the wilderness with her son Ishmael after being mistreated. An angel appears to Hagar at a spring in the desert to provide comfort and to prophesy the future of her son, ensuring their survival.

Berchem's interpretation of this poignant moment is characterized by his signature style, which often includes Italianate landscapes and a warm, golden light that bathes the scene. The painting is a testament to Berchem's skill in blending landscape with narrative and his ability to convey emotion through composition and the use of light. "Agar et l'Ange" not only reflects the religious and cultural interests of the 17th-century Dutch society but also exemplifies Berchem's contribution to the Dutch Italianate painting movement, which incorporated elements of the Italian Renaissance into Northern European art.

The work is significant for its artistic merit and for providing insight into the religious and cultural milieu of the time. It is held in high regard for its technical execution and for the way it captures the viewer's imagination with its evocative portrayal of a timeless story. As with many of Berchem's works, "Agar et l'Ange" likely appealed to collectors and art connoisseurs of the period for its combination of landscape, religious subject matter, and the harmonious interplay of light and color.
