englischThis new monograph on the rich history of the motif of angels not only deepens the sacral meaning of angels in art with highlights such as the systematization of the angelic motif in ikon painting in the analysis of their typology but also researches the role of the depiction of angels during the epochal changes involving alterations of the sacral architecture of the great cathedral in Paderborn. This fresh approach reaches from art historical analysis to contemporarily discussed topics of art, which have not gotten any amount of attention like popular spiritual art. In the process, the methods of this cultural phenomenon get defined and exemplary paintings (af Klint, Wall etc.) since the beginning of visionary art get decoded under the lens of formal criteria for the first time.
