An Angel in Red with a Lute
In the 1483 contract for the altarpiece to which this painting and An Angel in Green with a Vielle belonged (and whose centre panel was The Virgin of the Rocks), Leonardo agreed to work with the local Milanese artists Ambrogio and Evangelista de Predis. Comparison with other known works by Ambrogio suggest that this angel was painted by him.
