The Cold Fury of Wrath
A dark winged figure crouches among pale clouds, its head thrust forward beneath a spiked or flame-like crown. One hand drops heavily towards the lower edge while a long staff rises behind. The caption invokes the cold fury of a wrath that would have blasted. The tightly bent limbs turn that feeling into concentrated bodily tension within the visionary narrative of The Book of the Angels.
