https://www.fromoldbooks.org/Darboy-ImitationOfChrist/pages/310-full-page-christian-border-detail-angel-with-incense/ This is a detail from the full-page border engraving i posted recently. The censer, or thurible , burns incense, with the smoke representing prayers going up to heaven. Which is where the angels are when they are not in Ethiopia. So maybe this is a fallen angel? Angels gained wings in the 4th century or so; Biblical angels don’t have them. #angel #drawing #lineDrawing #vintageArt #vintageEngraving #wings #mythologicalCreatures #fobo #GIMP
