EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing detail from Lucas Cranach the Elder's masterpiece, "The Archangel Michael holding the Scales of Justice". In this oil on panel artwork, we witness the divine presence of Archangel Michael, an iconic figure in Christian mythology. With his flowing blond hair and ethereal aura, he exudes strength and righteousness. In this particular scene, Archangel Michael is depicted holding the symbolic Scales of Justice with utmost grace and precision. The scales represent his role as a celestial judge who weighs souls upon their journey to the afterlife. His piercing gaze reveals his unwavering commitment to delivering fair judgment. Clad in resplendent Renaissance attire, adorned with a striking brooch or pin that adds a touch of elegance to his ensemble, Archangel Michael wields a mighty sword at his side. This weapon signifies both protection against evil forces and swift retribution for those who have strayed from righteousness. Lucas Cranach's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke captured by eChristies Images' expert photography. The diptych format enhances the impact of this Northern Renaissance masterpiece while highlighting its intricate craftsmanship. As you admire this remarkable print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, allow yourself to be transported into an era where justice was personified by heavenly beings like Archangel Michael. Let it serve as a reminder that fairness and accountability are timeless virtues that transcend earthly boundaries.
