CHRISTIAN ART
ARCHANGEL MICHAEL STANDING IN MAJESTY BYZANTINE WALL PLAQUE RELIEF WITH COLOR DETAIL
Adapted from an ancient original in the British Museum, London 525 - 550 A.D. Original was carved in ivory as half of a diptych from Constantinople in the Byzantine style. It shows the characteristics of classical art being adapted to a Christian message. Michael stands on several steps with a wreath overhead containing a cross. In one hand, he holds an orb with a cross on top. In his other hand, he holds a staff. The original previously displayed an inscription "Receive the suppliant before you, despite his sinfulness". The beauty of this relief is enriched with hand-painted color details.
More about Archangel Michael: His name means “Who is as God”. Michael ranks as the greatest of all angels whether in Jewish, Christian, or Islamic writings. He is Chief of the Order of Virtues, Chief of Archangels, Prince of the Presence, the Angel of Repentance, Righteousness, Mercy, and Sanctification: Also, Ruler of the 4th Heaven and Conqueror of Satan. It is Michael who will descend from heaven with “the Key to the Abyss and a great chain in his hand” to “bind the Satanic Dragon for 1000 years” (Revelation: 20:1). It is foretold in Daniel that when the world is once again in real trouble, Michael will reappear. Among the Dead Sea Scrolls there is one titled “The War of the Sons of Light against the Sons of Darkness”. Michael is called the “Prince of Light”.
