Angel Pictures: Jewish

As with Islam, historical Judaism has generally objected to sacred figurative art. These angel images come relatively late. That said, to avoid policing religious affiliations, all 20 and 21 century artists go under 20th Century to Present, except for Chagall, who goes both places. Nevertheless, this section can and should be bigger. Please help me improve it by writing [email protected].
