Renaissance Angel Playing Violin Melozzo da Forli Ceramic Tree Decoration
Angel Playing the Violin (c. 1480) by artist Melozzo da Forlì (c. 1438-1494) is a vintage Renaissance fine art religious portrait painting. A fresco that features a musician angel playing a musical stringed instrument, the violin and making beautiful music.
This is one of the most wonderful works of the Italian Renaissance, even in its heavily damaged state. Melozzo da Forli was commissioned by Cardinal Giuliano della Rovere (later Pope Julius II) to decorate the apse of the Santi Apostoli in Rome. This work was executed by Melozzo da Forli between 1480 and 1484, but only remains in fragments now in the Vatican Museum. The surviving fragments depict the the Ascension, Apostles and music making angels.

I love the symbolism in this piece! The olive branches and flowers reminding us of Gethsemane and the joy of the resurrection. The candle reminding us of Christ's light and love. I've dropped it a few times already and it has held together nicely. Couldn't be more pleased with this product! Would definitely buy again. The printing was as expected on the front. Clear colors. The back where the artist put her brand name was a bit faded, but still readable.

Zazzle has created a beautiful pet memorial perfect for our Christmas tree for years and years to come. We lost these two pets during this year which makes these ornaments even more social. I recommend this item to anyone who has lost a four-legged friend. Zazzle did an excellent job centering the uploaded photos, clearing the decorative items and string hole.

A quality, durable ornament. Fun to find the Glockenspiel photo online. Adding the cymbals and snare drum on the back brings back memories of my Marching days in school. Fun to design and another ornament to the tree of instruments I can play. The printing is crisp and bright. I am continuing each year to add ornaments of instruments I can play to a small tree I will leave up all year.
