Geoffroy-Dechaume's Angel of the eastern gable of Sainte-Chapelle

Auguste Mestral

National Gallery of Art

The sculpture shows a standing figure with wings on its back. The figure wears a long robe and holds a staff with a cross at the top. The sculpture is placed outdoors in front of a stone wall with gothic architectural elements, such as an arched window. The material of the sculpture contrasts with the surrounding architecture. The angel faces forward with a neutral and serene expression. There are debris and stones around the sculpture's base.
