Archangel Raphael
The muted and sweeping background colors complement and
serve to further emphasize the clearly delineated central figure. Here the image
of the Archangel Raphael appears, dwarfing even the mountains. He has a fish hanging
from his hand. But Raphael, the winged attendant, the fisherman, is far from ominous.
His benevolent face wears an expression of purity and concern. He assumes a protective
attitude and his presence is a forceful and beautiful symbol of reassurance.
Titled "Arcángel San Rafael" in Spanish.
