Fantastic.
I would love to have a better explanation of what is depicted there. Of course, I understand it's Biblical in nature with the names and angels who seem to be saving the man from whatever is below the clouds......Hell, I imagine, but can someone fill in the details for this ignorant person? Many thanks!
Beautiful! Would love to see the back and edge of it.
Truly fantastic cameo!! Wonderful find!
It is a version of the painting by Raphael, Ezekiel's Vision.
