About the piece
This exquisite oil on copper by Johann König, dating to 1620, captures the moment an angel appears to Hagar in the wilderness. The composition emphasizes the grandeur of the natural world, with meticulous attention given to the textures of gnarled bark, layered foliage, and the quiet presence of rabbits and birds in the undergrowth of a deep European woodland.
