Lot Entertaining Two Angels 16th-17th century

Editor: So, this is Adriaen Collaert’s "Lot Entertaining Two Angels," a print from the late 16th or early 17th century. The detail is incredible! It feels almost like a comic, telling a whole story in one image. What strikes you about it? Curator: It’s interesting that you see it as a comic. I see it more as a meditation on divine intervention. Notice how Collaert uses light and shadow to highlight the angels, almost as if they’re radiating. Do you think that was intentional, or just a stylistic choice? Editor: Hmm, I hadn't thought of it that way. Maybe both? It definitely draws your eye to them first. It makes me wonder what stories are hidden in those details in the background.
