1688 Angel Angels Appearing Appears Biblical Good Gospel Luke Nativity News Shepherd Shepherds Testament
EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 17th-century print depicts the biblical account of the Angel appearing to the Shepherds as described in the Gospel of Luke (2:8-14). The scene unfolds in a serene and idyllic setting, with the Angel standing tall and resplendent against a backdrop of star-studded night sky. The shepherds, huddled around their fire, are startled by the Angel's sudden appearance, their expressions a mix of fear and awe. The Angel's wings are spread wide, and his face is filled with the radiant light of divine revelation. He bears the good news of the birth of Jesus, the long-awaited Messiah, and the savior of the world. The print, created in 1688, is a testament to the enduring power of the biblical narrative and the continuing fascination with the story of the Nativity. The Angel's message of peace and goodwill to all people is as relevant today as it was over three centuries ago. The intricate details of the print, from the folds of the Angel's robes to the individual blades of grass in the foreground, demonstrate the mastery of the printmaker's art. This beautiful work of art invites us to contemplate the profound significance of the Angel's appearance to the shepherds and the transformative power of the Gospel message.
