The need for a luminous image expressed through painting
The painting depicts an angel hovering over a picturesque city. His large white wings create a sense of lightness and freedom. The angel plays a musical instrument, filling the air with a melody that seems to merge with the silence of the city. The buildings beneath him are rendered in soft, blurred colors, emphasizing the through-world mood of the scene. The windows of the buildings show hints of life, but the viewer's attention is held by the splendor of the angel and his heavenly surroundings.
