Angels in Art. E-book. Formato EPUB ebook di Clara Erskine Clement Waters

ANGELS and archangels, cherubim and seraphim, and all the glorious hosts of heaven were a fruitful source of inspiration to the oldest painters and sculptors whose works are known to us, while the artists of our more practical, less dreamful age are, from time to time, inspired to reproduce their conceptions of the guardian angels of our race.
The Almighty declared to Job that the creation of the world was welcomed with shouts of joy by "all the sons of God," and the story of the words and works of the angels written in the Scriptures-from the placing of the cherubim at the east of the Garden of Eden, to the worship of the angel by John, in the last chapter of Revelation-presents them to us as heavenly guides, consolers, protectors, and reprovers of human beings.
