Rafael painted two small angels
at the bottom of his famous "Sistine Chapel Madonna". This painting
was done in 1513 to 1514 and currently is in the Sempergalerie in
Dresden. These angels have a unique character that makes them loved
by many people.
This virtual needlepoint is of the larger angel on the left. The
two angels were charted separately so more facial detail could be
captured without requiring lots of background stitching. Both charts
were to the same scale, so the resulting canvases were of different
size.

needlepoint.
