New York-Cloisters-Saint Michael-5
Master of Belmonte (active ca. 1460-90) Tempera, oil, gold and silver on wood Spanish, Aragon, ca 1460-90 From the high altar of the parish church of San Miguel at Belmonte, southwest of Saragossa Armed with a coat of mail, dagger, shield and lance, the archangel Michael symbolizes the triumph over evil. The demon at his feet is the Antichrist, cast out of heaven. The youthful beauty and sumptuous rainment of Saint Michael in the rich courtly setting combine with the image of the demon to form a stark visual contrast between the strength and splendor of the Church and the monstrousness of evil defeated.
