Description from the seller
Vintage Religious Art Set - Fra Angelico Angel on Canvas & Double-Scene Chromolithograph
This lot features two distinct pieces of vintage Christian devotional art, dating from the early-to-mid 20th century. These pieces are excellent examples of European religious iconography used for home worship and decoration.
1. Musician Angel (After Fra Angelico)
Subject: An elegant depiction of an angel playing a drum, based on the famous Renaissance fresco by the Italian master Fra Angelico.
Medium: Print on canvas (or treated textile), giving it a texture that closely mimics an original painting.
Dimensions: 42 x 18.5 cm (slender "panneau" format).
Frame: Housed in a deep, gold-toned wooden "shadow box" style frame, which adds a sense of depth and importance to the piece.
Condition: Good vintage condition with a beautiful natural patina. The colors remain soft and faithful to the Renaissance style.
2. Double-Scene Devotional Print: The Eucharist & Jesus with Children
Subject: A rare composite piece featuring two iconographic registers:
Upper Register: A solemn depiction of Jesus administering the Holy Communion (The Eucharist) to a praying youth.
Lower Register: A warm, pastoral scene of Jesus blessing a group of children and mothers (the biblical theme "Suffer the little children to come unto me").
Medium: Chromolithograph on paper, featuring rich colors and fine details.
Dimensions: 28.5 x 19.5 cm.
Frame: Slim gold-toned frame with its original protective glass.
Condition: Excellent preservation of colors due to the glass protection. Minor age-related wear on the frame edges.
