	Archangel Michael
		This diptych was a bookcover, whose illustration reflects the waning influence of classicism giving way to the simplistic medieval style.
		The Archangel or Saint Michael who appears on this part of the diptych is probably a literal copy (as to details) of a much more ancient figure (perhaps the goddess Victory [see Nike] from whom the christian angel is derived) the carver had before his eyes.
		Although the precision of the Archangel, his classical robes and the architectural elements framing the figure embody a focus on the realism of antiquity, there is an obvious loss of perspective--the angel seems to hover over the staircase, barely touching the stairs.
