I think you are right about the Victory to Angel idea ad well. As the empire transitioned to Christianity, they maintained images of victory on coinage. This imagery would be maintained during the Byzantine era, only she would be holding a cross instead of a laurel wreathe. This undoubtedly influenced conceptions of Angels in art.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
