Art Figurines - Angels and Demons

Figurines depicting Heaven and Hell often feature works by artists such as Leonardo DaVinci, Jean Hay, Rogier Van Der Weyden, Gerard David, Caesar Van Everdingen, Raphael, Jose De Ribera, Mantegna, Durer, Grunewald, Hieronymus Bosch, and Pieter Breugel. Such works are the artists' famous depictions of nearly every sort of other-worldly being and creature. From the grotesque to the beautiful, this genre encompasses some of the most dramatic art rendered in figurine form.
