San Rafael Arcangel - Colonial Oil on Canvas.
Circa 1800
This warm and cheerful late 18th / early 19th century Spanish colonial oil on canvas painting represents The Archangel, Rafael. San Rafael, one of seven archangels who performs all manners of healing, is almost always depicted as he is here, as a winged archangel with his traveler's staff and a trout. The trout, which he used to cure his father's blindness, is his defining attribute. Saint Raphael is the patron saint of many things including blind people, travelers, pharmacists, physicians and nurses. He is often petitioned by those suffering from nightmares, mental illnesses, insanity and bodily ills.
Displayed in a beautiful Spanish colonial style leather frame with hand braided corners and soft, subtle patina.
Dimensions: frame measures 40 inches vertical x 30 inches horizontal. Painting measures 32 inches vertical x 23 horizontal.
