"Angel" is an 1881 painting by Pre-Raphaelite artist Edward Burne-Jones. The painting depicts a youthful angel in a blue robe with large black wings, playing a flute. This angel is a symbol of beauty and serenity, captured in a moment of peaceful contemplation. The painting's muted color palette and delicate details are characteristic of Burne-Jones's style, which drew inspiration from the art of the early Italian Renaissance. "Angel" is housed in the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow, UK, and is a popular example of Burne-Jones's work, known for its beauty and spiritual resonance.
