Thanks for naming it for me, I have always also thought it was exceptionally beautiful.

Thank you-— so very beautiful. It is a balm which heals our hearts and shields us from the ugliness in this world.

Blessed be God in His angels and in His saints.

Sane art critics consider this painting and this era the high-water mark of painting. It's hard to argue otherwise. Imagine where we'd be today without the modernist movement.
