Facilitated description:

 

Angels is a painting on wooden table. 
The painting depicts two angels kneeling. 
The painter Spinello Spinelli, known as Aretino, painted the painting in 1372. 
The painting is kept at the Galleria Sabauda in Turin. 
The La Venaria Reale Conservation and Restoration Centre restored the painting in 2014. 
The restorers cleaned the table of dust. 
They filled the lacks of color and gilding with a layer of putty (plaster and glue).
