In this painting, the artist responds to the turmoil in our world today—wars, suffering, and the loss of innocent lives. The angel, portrayed as both grieving and powerless, looks upward, offering solace and shelter to those in need. Despite the sorrowful theme, the soft colors and gentle light within the painting convey a glimmer of hope, suggesting resilience amidst despair. The theme of angels has been taken up repeatedly by artists such as Paul Klee. Angels live in their own world, bridging humanity and the spiritual realm. (Size refers to unstretched canvas, if stretched: 235x200cm)
