A glorious Thanksgiving angel after John La-farge's drawing from the  Adoration, Praise, Thanksgivings, and Love angels, a series of 4 watercolor drawings on paper. 6 x 2" A glorious glass Christmas ornament of an angel from John La-Farge's series of four watercolor drawings on paper for a mural design, of angels representing Adoration, Praise, Thanksgiving, and love. The angel, from the Thanksgiving angels group. The beautiful angel with brown hair has lavishly glittered wings, very detailed, towering high above her head and covering most of her golden dress in the back. The angel is wearing a full-folded golden dress with a long light blue sash tied around her waist and flowing to the bottom of her gown curving beautifully in the front and the back. In her left hand, she is holding a long scroll. While this image was drawn by an American artist of the late 19th century, it has a lot in common with traditional Renaissance and European painting.
