Funny thing, when I was in Italy I saw a painting of Gabriel in a church (one of the many churches in Italy ._.) The Annunciation, of course. He was depicted as girly as always, wearing a nice black dress–err, robe.

My reaction: “*snort* black’s slimming, eh? Gaaaaaabriel?” my sister even examined the picture herself and said ‘he’s pretty girly, huh?’

@Kit “Angels: A Glorious Celebration of Angels in Art” which is a book I got in Windsor, England, which I think the Panetti is in. “Angels in Art” which I found used on Amazon.com, not sure who the author is cause the slip cover is missing, and an art guide of paintings of angels and demons and the like that I got in the Louvre, apparently the guides are in English, mine’s in French *snort* still nice pictures, and I can read a tiny bit of it judging by the context and a few recognizable root words.

“Iâ€™ve collected several books on religious art featuring angels, which is where I scanned the images for this article from.”

Could you name a few of the books ?
(Specifically the one with Domencio Panetti’s painting)
And where you think I could buy them (Barnes & Nobles, Borders, e-bay XD )?
