EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts an angelic figure from John La Farge's masterpiece, the Angel Mural at Trinity Church in Boston, created in 1876. La Farge, a prominent American artist of the 19th century, expertly captured the ethereal beauty of the angel in this charcoal, graphite, and pen and brown ink drawing, squared with graphite. The mural, which is a significant work of American religious art, originally adorned the apse of Trinity Church and measured an impressive 27 feet high and 120 feet long. The angel, with outstretched wings and a serene expression, appears to be in the midst of descending from the heavens. The intricate details of the angel's robes and wings are skillfully rendered, showcasing La Farge's exceptional draftsmanship. The use of charcoal and graphite adds depth and texture to the image, while the brown ink provides a sense of antiquity and history. This print is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of American art and the enduring influence of religious themes in art. It is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, American art, or religious art. The Angel Mural at Trinity Church is now preserved and on display at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., allowing future generations to appreciate the beauty and significance of this historic work.
