Benozzo Gozzoli, Angel in Adoration

Description

The Choirs of Angels in Adoration by Benozzo Gozzoli are part of the famous Procession of the Magi, frescoed between 1459 and 1461 in the Chapel of Palazzo Medici Riccardi in Florence. The angels, depicted in sumptuous and colourful robes, with golden halos and richly decorated wings, are arranged in harmonious choirs, immersed in an idyllic landscape. Their gaze and poses convey a sense of devotion and festivity. The work, characterised by refined details and vivid colours, enhances the splendour and prestige of the Medici family, mixing sacredness and earthly celebration.
