An angel with green-blue wings and a golden halo glides horizontally against a dark blue background
Detailed Description
A single angel is depicted in profile, positioned horizontally and appearing to glide or fly from left to right against a dark, deep blue background. The angel occupies the central and upper-right portion of the frame. The angel has light skin, a youthful face, and short, curly, light brown hair. A golden, rayed halo encircles its head. Its gaze is directed forward and slightly downward. The angel wears a long-sleeved, flowing robe in a muted reddish-orange or salmon color, which billows slightly behind it. A piece of lighter, yellowish fabric is visible draped around its waist or lower body. Large, feathered wings extend from the angel's back, sweeping upwards and backwards. The wings are primarily a muted green-blue color, with lighter, almost translucent areas towards the left. The angel's right arm is extended forward, with the hand slightly open, while the left arm is bent, with the hand near its chest. The background is a uniform dark blue, with visible cracks and texture across its surface.
