Host Receiving Tempera On Parchment Angelic
EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning late 15th century image, titled "The Angelic Host," is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the Christian faith during the Renaissance era. The unknown artist masterfully captures the ethereal beauty and divine majesty of the celestial beings in this tempera on parchment painting. The scene unfolds with the Virgin Mary, resplendent in blue and gold, seated at the center, her hands raised in prayer as she receives the blessings of the heavenly host. Angels, adorned in vibrant colors and intricate lettering, surround her in a radiant display of celestial harmony. Their faces are serene, their expressions filled with reverence and love. The royalty of the heavenly realm is on full display in this exquisite work of art. The angels, with their wings spread wide and their halos aglow, embody the power and grace of the divine. The delicate use of color and the intricate details of their robes and lettering add depth and texture to the image, bringing the otherworldly beings to life. This masterpiece, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), is a reminder of the profound impact of religious art on the cultural landscape of the past. The Angelic Host is a testament to the enduring power of faith and the beauty of the divine, a legacy that continues to inspire and captivate us today.
