Painting Description
"Angels" by Raphael refers to a famous detail from the Sistine Madonna, an oil painting by the Italian Renaissance artist Raphael Sanzio. Completed in 1512, the Sistine Madonna originally adorned the altar of the Benedictine monastery church of San Sisto in Piacenza, Italy, and is now housed in the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in Dresden, Germany. The painting is renowned for its representation of the Virgin Mary holding the Christ Child, with Saint Sixtus and Saint Barbara flanking them, and two cherubic angels at the bottom. These cherubs have gained iconic status in Western art, often reproduced independently of the full composition.
The angels are depicted resting their chubby cheeks on their hands, gazing upward with a contemplative and serene expression that has captivated viewers for centuries. Their innocent and endearing appearance has led to their widespread recognition and use in popular culture, often as a symbol of innocence and spirituality. The angels have been featured on a variety of merchandise, from posters to postcards, and have been referenced in numerous artistic and literary works.
Raphael's mastery of form, composition, and the delicate rendering of the cherubs' expressions exemplifies the High Renaissance ideals of beauty and harmony. The angels' portrayal in the Sistine Madonna is a testament to Raphael's skill in capturing human emotion and the divine, making this detail one of the most beloved and enduring images in the history of art. The popularity of the angels has contributed to the overall fame of the Sistine Madonna, securing its place as one of Raphael's most celebrated masterpieces.
