L'Ange déchu (The Fallen Angel) by Alexandre Cabanel, 1847

Cabanel was 24 years old when he painted this scene. It depicts a crying Lucifer after he was expelled from heaven by God. Check out the detail on the wings, hair and face -- so beautiful.

please update me if you do... i would love to see this someday as well

I’m seriously considering going to Montpellier to see this irl

Wow, this painting is absolutely breathtaking! The detail on the wings, hair, and expression of Lucifer is just mesmerizing. You can feel the emotion and sorrow emanating from the canvas. Cabanel was truly a talented artist to be able to capture such raw emotion in his work at such a young age. 😍🎨 #artlover #fallenangel #masterpiece

I've tried to find the name for this painting a a bunch of times without success. heard it's one of the most hated/shadow banned painting in history. Love it. Thanks!
