The artists name is A. J. Haacke. The painting is titled "Rapture of the Saints". It was done in 1942. I bought one online for $35.00. It does have some water damage but but is still beautiful. I am looking for one in mint condition and would pay up to $75.00 depending on the condition of the frame. ***********I have one in mint condition contact me on facebook via gabrielle Klovski or at my email at too_cute4_yew@hotmail.com
In the center of the painting is Jesus himself, who decides if half the human race joins him in Heaven, or must be sentenced to Hell for the rest of their afterlife. A lot of people are typically confused by The Last Judgment because of the fact that there is a lot going on at the same time. If looked closely, the top half represents those who are saints, angels and those who will go to Heaven, while the bottom still has those who are being resurrected or going to Hell on a boat led by a demon. All in all, this has to be the most complex painting Michelangelo has ever made.

The Golden Ratio in ArtNow let's go back and try to discover the Golden Ratio in art. We will concentrate on the works of Leonardo da Vinci, as he was not only a great artist but also a genius when it came to mathematics and invention. Your task is to find at least one of the following da Vinci paintings on the Internet. Make sure that you find the entire painting and not just part of it. The best way to do this is to use a search engine. I suggest either Google orLycos. Type the name of the painting you wish to find into the search engine and see what you can come up with. Once you find the painting, return to this site for instructions on how to find the Golden Ratio. If you wish, you may borrow the image you find by right-clicking on the image and selecting "Save Image As...". Then save it to the desktop. This way you have the image on the computer you are using. If you have the capability (a color printer) it might be a good idea to print the image out as well, but this is not completely necessary.List of paintings to look for:The AnnunciationMadonna with Child and SaintsThe Mona LisaSt. JeromeIf you are having difficulty finding the images, try a search using the words "da Vinci" and "art gallery" together.Directions for finding evidence of the Golden Ratio in each painting:The Annunciation - Using the left side of the painting as a side, create a square on the left of the painting by inserting a vertical line. Notice that you have created a square and a rectangle. The rectangle turns out to be a Golden Rectangle, of course. Also, draw in a horizontal line that is 61.8% of the way down the painting (.618 - the inverse of the Golden Ratio). Draw another line that is 61.8% of the way up the painting. Try again with vertical lines that are 61.8% of the way across both from left to right and from right to left. You should now have four lines drawn across the painting. Notice that these lines intersect important parts of the painting, such as the angel, the woman, etc. Coincidence? I think not!Madonna with Child and Saints - Draw in the four lines that are 61.8% of the way from each edge of the painting. These lines should mark off important parts of the painting, such as the angels and the baby Jesus in the center.The Mona Lisa - Measure the length and the width of the painting itself. The ratio is, of course, Golden. Draw a rectangle around Mona's face (from the top of the forehead to the base of the chin, and from left cheek to right cheek) and notice that this, too, is a Golden rectangle.St. Jerome - Draw a rectangle around St. Jerome. Conveniently, he just fits inside a Golden rectangle.Conclusions - Leonardo da Vinci's talent as an artist may well have been outweighed by his talents as a mathematician. He incorporated geometry into many of his paintings, with the Golden Ratio being just one of his many mathematical tools. Why do you think he used it so much? Experts agree that he probably thought that Golden measurements made his paintings more attractive. Maybe he was just a little too obsessed with perfection. However, he was not the only one to use Golden properties in his work.
All of the concepts "saints", "angels" and "church" are part of the greater concept "religion".
Angels are already saints so have no need of a patron.
By painting images of saints
Angels were created by God in Heaven as pure spirits. Saints lived as humans and showed a life of heroic virtue. The archangels are also given the title of saint.
ALL angels are honored as saints as they stand before the throne of God. We only know the names of a few - Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, for example. However, there are thousands, maybe millions more. Only God knows the actual number and their names. Through scripture God has only revealed the names of a few to us.

The bible calls them saints which are different than angels. Angels are created beings but were never human.

Guardian angels have no patron saint because they are, in a sense, patrons themselves.
The first Christian theologian to outline a specific scheme for guardian angels was Honorius of Autun. He said that every soul was assigned a guardian angel the moment it was put into a body. Whether guardian angels attend each and every person is not consistently believed or upheld in patristic Christian thought. Saint Ambrose, for example, believed that saints lose their guardian angels so that they might have a greater struggle and persevere. Saints Jerome and Brasil of Caesarea argued that sin drove the angels away.
