“Fallen Angel,” painted by Alexandre Cabanel in 1847, is a profound work that captures the expulsion of Lucifer from Heaven. At the young age of 24, Cabanel created this oil on canvas masterpiece which now resides in the Musée Fabre in Montpellier. The painting is a romantic interpretation of the fallen angel, depicted with a perfect body akin to a Greek god, yet his expression conveys a mix of rage and despair. This emotional complexity is further accentuated by the darkening of the angel’s wings at the tips, symbolizing his descent into the role of the Devil. Cabanel’s choice of this theme reflects a departure from typical French painting subjects of the time, offering a unique and contemplative view on the consequences of rebellion against divine authority. The painting not only showcases Cabanel’s artistic mastery but also invites viewers to reflect on themes of fall from grace and redemption.
