The sculpture depicts a businessman lifting an angel into an intimate embrace, balancing graceful movement, intricate detail, and the dreamlike symbolism that defines Parkes’ celebrated world of Magical Realism. The inspiration for \u003cstrong\u003eAngel Affair\u003c\/strong\u003e came to Parkes while stranded overnight in Zurich Airport during a snowstorm, where he dreamed that angels descended to comfort the exhausted travelers around him. That dream evolved into this playful and tender encounter between the earthly and the celestial. Cast in bronze and presented on a stone base, \u003cstrong\u003eAngel Affair – Life Size\u003c\/strong\u003e is an exceptionally limited and commanding Michael Parkes sculpture created for serious collectors and significant spaces.
