About the piece
This 1894 work by Paul-Hippolyte Flandrin captures a moment of quiet contemplation, showing the Dominican friar and painter Fra Angelico at work. Surrounded by attentive angels with golden halos, the artist is depicted in a state of humble prayer, reflecting the 19th-century academic interest in religious history and artistic purity.
