'Archangel Gabriel with Parchment and Pen III' Art Gallery Paintings View by Region Andes Colonial Replicas ![]()
Wearing a broad-brimmed hat and
silk brocade, Saint Gabriel the archangel appears in the style
of a Spanish grandee. Young and vigorous, the heavenly messenger
represents a pure spirit created by God. Gabriel first
appears in the book of Daniel. He appeared to Zachariah
to announce the birth of John the Baptist and later
to Mary, to tell her she would be the mother
of Jesus. The patron saint of communications workers, Gabriel's feast
day is September 29. Edgar Aguirre Gmez recreates an
inspirational portrait from the Cuzco School of painting.
