Jacques de Gheyn II, after Karel van Mander I

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of a procession of angels near ancient ruins. The scene features a group of winged figures, including cherubs and angelic figures, some playing musical instruments such as a harp. The setting is a landscape with old stone structures with arches covered in plants. In the background, there are hills and a distant cityscape. Some angels are leading an animal, while others are engaged in diverse activities. The overall tone is celebratory and lively, with the angels moving gracefully through the ruins.
