The artwork, titled “Fallen Angel,” was created by Roberto Ferri in 2011 in Italy. This painting, with dimensions of 50 x 50 cm, belongs to the Neo-Baroque and Kitsch art movements and falls under the religious painting genre.
The artwork depicts a somber and evocative scene featuring a fallen angel, characterized by its strong classical influences reminiscent of the Baroque era. The angel, rendered in a lifelike manner with meticulous attention to anatomical details, is seated on a rocky ledge. His dark wings, an emblem of his celestial origin, contrast starkly with his muscular, yet vulnerable, human form. The subdued, earthy tones and dramatic use of chiaroscuro heighten the sense of melancholy and introspection, encapsulating the moment of his fall from grace. This poignant representation invites contemplation on themes of divinity, fallibility, and redemption.
