EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print showcases a Renaissance-style musical angel playing a tambourine, reminiscent of the masterful works of Italian artist Fra Angelico. Dating back to approximately 1910, this Edwardian-era card image transports us back in time to the ethereal world of celestial beings. The angel, with her delicately painted wings spread wide, gazes serenely as she gracefully strikes the tambourine with a tender hand. Her halo, a symbol of her divine nature, shines brightly against the soft, muted background, further emphasizing her otherworldly presence. The intricate details of her flowing robes and the delicate folds of her wings are a testament to the skillful artistry of the printmaker. The tambourine, a percussion instrument commonly used in both secular and religious music during the Renaissance period, adds a playful and melodic touch to this spiritual scene. The musical angel, with her tambourine, represents the harmonious blend of the divine and the earthly, a theme that was popular during the Renaissance era. This print, with its rich history and intricate details, is a beautiful reminder of the artistic achievements of the past. The Italian Renaissance, a period known for its cultural and artistic rebirth, is reflected in the elegant style and graceful composition of this musical angel image. Whether displayed in a private collection or as a decorative accent in a home, this print is a timeless treasure that continues to captivate and inspire.
