Two Angels ~ Raphael Santi ~ Silver Coin in Frame Case
"Angels" is the first element of a nine-element coin series with the depictions of angels created in various times. In this spiritual and religious journey, divine messengers manifest themselves in all their richness of forms and traits: from benefactors, guardians, musicians, messengers proclaiming the birth of Christ, to witnesses to the martyr's death of the Savior of the World. The unrivalled wealth of depictions causes that this collection will captivate both art lovers and those who believe in the protective power of Angels.
THE PERFECT COMBINATION OF ART AND RELIGION
Beautiful, winged angels from the painting "Sistine Madonna" by Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino are famous in themselves. No cherub, or a group of cherubs, is as famous as those leaning against the altar at the bottom of the painting.
THE WORLD'S MOST FAMOUS CHERUBS!
There were several legends around Raffaello's angels. When Raffaello painted the Sistine Madonna, his model’s children came to admire his work with her. Their attitude inspired the master so much that he added them to the painting exactly as he saw them.
