The Angel is a 2013 painting by the Belgian Michaël Borremans. Painted in oil on a three-metre-high canvas, it shows a blonde woman in a light pink dress and black face paint. It was made in 2013 after Borremans found the dress in a carnival store and had the fashion model Hannelore Knuts pose with it in his studio. Critics have described the painting as enigmatic, androgynous and eye-catching. It was first exhibited in Antwerp in 2013 and was the main publicity image for a Borremans exhibition held in Brussels, Tel Aviv and Dallas in 2014–2015.
