About Artwork: (About 1540) "This is one of four paintings of angels and saints made to decorate a pair of shutters. It was common at the time they were painted for altarpieces to have shutters to embellish and protect them. The angels would have been on the inside of the shutters and the saints on the outside. The central image these shutters would once have flanked is now missing. The Latin inscription on the plinth beneath the angel’s feet says ‘AVE REGINA’ meaning ‘Hail Queen’. When read with the inscription beneath the other angel’s feet, the whole phrase is: AVE REGINA COELORUM (‘Hail Queen of the Heavens’). This message would have been read when the shutters were open and it suggests that the missing central image was one of the Virgin Mary crowned in the heavens." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
