"Heilige Geest met de aartsengelen en de engelen van laagste orde" is a 17th-century engraving by Flemish artist Jan (II) Collaert. The intricate artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases a hierarchical depiction of angels. At the top, a dove, symbolizing the Holy Spirit, descends amidst radiant light, surrounded by archangels and angels of the lowest order. Collaert's meticulous detail and skillful use of light and shadow bring this celestial scene to life, offering a glimpse into the intricate hierarchy of angels in Christian tradition.
