Night Angel is an etching created by American artist Nancy Snooks, a pupil of Sister Corita Kent, a nun and head of the Art Department at Immaculate Heart College in Los Angeles, California. Throughout her life, Snooks explored a variety of aesthetics within the abstract and expressionist genres, but kept her content primarily focused on religious subjects. For a time, her prints emulated the pop art style of Kent during the 1960s and 1970s, with bright blocks of color and graphic texts. This print, an artist’s proof copy, is a darker example of Snooks’s expressionism that explored deep emotions within the constructs of Christian narratives.
