The Celestial Art
A winged angel in flight plays a violin against a cloudy sky, trailing a long banner of cloth. A large, pale profile of a serene face, with closed eyes and a smooth, rounded head, fills the right side. The lithograph uses soft black tones and loose, sketchy strokes on off-white paper.
