Saint Michael the Archangel | Francesco del Cossa | 1650

This painting is a dramatic depiction of Saint Michael the Archangel, often portrayed as a warrior angel in Christian iconography. Saint Michael is known for his battle against evil, typically shown as him defeating Satan, often represented as a dragon or a demonic figure. In this particular work, Saint Michael is seen in mid-air, his wings outstretched, with a bold, defiant expression as he wields a sword or spear, symbolizing the fight against darkness. The defeated figure below represents evil being vanquished. The use of chiaroscuro, the strong contrast between light and dark, adds to the intensity and drama of the scene. This painting exemplifies the Baroque era's focus on movement, detail, and emotional intensity.
