Notes: Berlin State Museum. Christianity sees angels as messengers of God and as expressions of his presence. This angel concert was assembled in the 19th century with figures from another context in its present form. The band of clouds was also carved at this later date to unify the angels. It is likely that they were originally part of a birth scene. (Google Arts)
