1690 Angel Angels Biblical Guide Guides Guiding Testament Tobit
EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting 17th-century print depicts a pivotal moment from the Old Testament book of Tobit. In the image, the angel Raphael, disguised as a human, is shown guiding Tobit with a gentle touch on his shoulder. The scene is taken from Tobit 5, where Raphael has been sent by God to heal Tobit's blindness and protect Sarah, Tobit's daughter-in-law, from the demon Asmodeus. The print, created around 1690, beautifully captures the tender and protective nature of the angelic presence. Raphael's wings are subtly suggested by the folds of his cloak, and his face is filled with compassion and care. Tobit, an old and humble man, looks up at his angelic guide with a mixture of wonder and gratitude. The Old Testament story of Tobit is a testament to the power of divine intervention and the importance of faith. It is a tale of redemption, healing, and the unwavering love of family. This print serves as a visual reminder of the belief that angels can guide us through life's challenges and offer us comfort and protection. The intricate details of the print, from the textured fabric of Tobit's robe to the delicate folds of Raphael's cloak, transport us back to a time when faith and spirituality were deeply intertwined with daily life. This image is not only a beautiful work of art but also a powerful reminder of the enduring power of faith and the presence of divine guidance in our lives.
