Cherubs seat near the top of the list in Christian angelology second only to Seraphims, therefore they have a special place in religious paintings. They are mentioned both in the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament and are the protagonists of Framed Cherub Art. On the other hand, they were also celebrated by other cultures and civilizations, with virtually all regarding them as the link between the gods and the human’s world. There is also evidence that they were the ones to inspire the griffin, another mythological creature, that has an Eagles head instead of a human one.
