The The Visit of the Three Angels to Abraham by Antonello da Messina is a small sacred panel painted around 1460-1465. The work depicts the biblical episode from Genesis in which three angels announce to Abraham the future birth of Isaac. The angelic figures, dressed in pale tunics, are arranged with harmony and composure, while Abraham is caught in an attitude of humble welcome. The serene, luminous landscape contributes to the balance of the scene.
The attention to detail, the rendering of light and the formal precision reveal the Flemish influence fused with the Italian Renaissance tradition, characteristic of Antonello's pictorial language.
