Engel met drie putti in wolken 1732 - 1776

This etching, "Engel met drie putti in wolken" (Angel with three putti in clouds), was created by Gilles Demarteau sometime between 1732 and 1776. The artwork depicts an angel with large wings soaring through the air, surrounded by three cherubs. The artist utilizes subtle shading techniques to create a sense of depth and volume, highlighting the angel's flowing garments and the delicate features of the cherubs. The scene is filled with a sense of lightness and movement, capturing the ethereal beauty of the celestial beings. The use of etching allowed Demarteau to create a detailed and nuanced representation of this timeless religious subject.
