Angel Standing 

"Angel Standing" is a pen and ink drawing by Dutch Master Rembrandt van Rijn. The work is a study of an angel figure in profile with wings outstretched, demonstrating Rembrandt’s mastery of the human form through expressive lines and subtle shading. This is a small drawing, only 12.8 x 7.1 cm in size, which suggests it may have been a study for a larger work. This piece showcases Rembrandt’s signature style of drawing, which was characterized by a focus on light and shadow, creating a sense of depth and emotion even in a simple sketch. Rembrandt's drawings, like this one, reveal his artistic process and offer a glimpse into his creative mind.
