The Last Angel, 1912
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating and thought-provoking piece of art that captures the essence of Christian beliefs and the end times. Painted by Nicholas Roerich, this tempera on cardboard print showcases an apocalyptic scene filled with smoke, flames, and burning clouds. In the center of the painting stands a majestic angel, his wings spread wide as he holds a shield in one hand and a spear in another. The intensity of his gaze reflects both determination and sorrow as he prepares to face the impending chaos. Surrounding him are other angels, each armed with spears ready to defend against the inferno raging around them. The artist's use of vibrant colors creates an atmosphere of urgency and despair. The swirling clouds engulfed in flames symbolize destruction while hinting at meteorological phenomena associated with weather changes during tumultuous times. "The Last Angel" invites viewers to contemplate their own beliefs about religion, spirituality, and humanity's fate. It serves as a reminder that even in moments of darkness and uncertainty, there is still hope for redemption. Displayed at the Nicholas Roerich Museum in New York City, this painting continues to inspire awe through its powerful imagery and profound symbolism. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded that art has the ability to transcend time and evoke deep emotions within us all.
