The “Awakening Angel” knocker is a hyper-realistic work that captures the essence of an object steeped in history and symbolism. The meticulous depiction of an angel, frozen in metal, evokes a feeling of protection and mystery. The delicately crafted wings seem ready to display their splendor, while the face of the angel, imbued with serenity, welcomes the visitor with gentle kindness. The texture of the metal is rendered with precision, testifying to the passages of visitors over time. Light plays on the surface, creating striking contrasts that bring the inanimate object to life. This knocker is not only an entrance to a home, but also to a world imbued with spirituality and contemplation. Through this representation, the viewer is led to reflect on the threshold between the profane and the sacred, between the material and the spiritual. It is a piece that resonates with the soul, an ode to the beauty hidden in the details of everyday life
