"Personifikation des Glaubens (Fides) mit drei Engeln" is a red chalk drawing created between 1735 and 1740 by Venetian artist Giovanni Antonio Guardi. The drawing depicts the personification of faith (Fides) with three angels, a common theme in religious art. The delicate lines and the sketchy nature of the drawing are characteristic of Guardi's style, which often focused on capturing a fleeting moment. The drawing, which is currently housed in the Städel Museum, is a study for a larger work and offers insight into the artist's creative process.
