EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Cosmas Damian Asam, a renowned German artist from the 18th century. Titled "Two Angels Flying; verso: God the Father Seated in the Clouds" this piece is an enchanting representation of celestial beings and divine presence. The image captures two ethereal angels gracefully soaring through the heavens, their wings outstretched as they navigate the vast expanse above. The delicate details and vibrant colors bring these winged figures to life, evoking a sense of awe and wonder. On the reverse side, we are treated to another masterpiece by Asam - "God the Father Seated in the Clouds". This depiction portrays a majestic figure seated amidst billowing clouds, radiating power and serenity. The use of red chalk, brush and brown ink lends depth and texture to this religious scene. Asam's skillful use of graphite and white gouache highlights adds dimensionality to both compositions. His artistry beautifully merges spirituality with artistic expression, creating a visual testament to faith and devotion. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print serves as a reminder of Asam's enduring legacy in German heritage art. It invites viewers into a realm where heavenly beings coexist with mortals on paper—a timeless tribute that continues to captivate audiences centuries later.
