Titled "Angel and Shepherds" this terracotta and cloth sculpture is a part of the Christmas Creche and tree collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The baroque style figurines, adorned with vibrant polychrome colors, bring an air of festivity to any space. The angel, depicted in mid-flight, gracefully hovers above a group of shepherds who are captivated by its divine presence. Their robes flow elegantly as if caught by an invisible breeze. Wired and suspended models add a touch of magic to this display, creating an ethereal atmosphere that transports viewers into the heartwarming nativity scene. Each delicate detail has been meticulously crafted to evoke religious sentiments and celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. These ornate sculptures serve as timeless reminders of faith and devotion during the holiday season. Whether placed on mantels or nestled within Christmas trees, these decorations infuse homes with a sense of reverence and joy. Captured beautifully by eBoltin Picture Library's skilled photographers, this print from Fine Art Finder allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate this remarkable piece without limitations.
