Dark and The Light Angel | Edgar Ende | 1946

In this enigmatic post-war vision, Edgar Ende stages a surreal procession through a silent forest, where two angelic figures—one pale and luminous, the other shadowed and somber—move in parallel. Their opposing tones evoke a symbolic tension between light and darkness, purity and burden, spiritual ascent and earthly struggle. The rigid verticality of the trees creates a rhythmic, dreamlike labyrinth, heightening the sense of quiet urgency and metaphysical pursuit. Executed in a restrained, muted palette, the work reflects Ende’s introspective and mystical sensibility, exploring inner duality and the fragile balance between hope and despair.
