Guercino

The light in this picture not only puts light on the woman and the stand, but it appears to clear up the clouds and expose the darkness. Along with the light coming from the dove, there is also more light coming from behind it, like more light is soon to follow. The image also seems to depict a holy event.

  1. Yeah the light is almost the center point of the painting more than than the characters as even without the angel the light forms a god ray coming from heaven
