Christ Child with Three Angels

Frühe Holzschnitte, vers 1460/1470

This is a painting of a seated figure with a halo and a group of winged figures. The main figure is seated on a throne-like structure, holding an orb and raising a hand. This figure has a halo depicted with linear segments. Surrounding this figure are three winged figures, likely angels, clad in colorful robes and wings. They appear to be in a posture of reverence or prayer. The background is simplistic with a green area at the bottom.
