Tell me that the angel on the left doesn't have 2 huge portabella mushrooms attached to his shoulders.

@chai2,
Angel in training, Chai. Until they are fully grounded in the vagaries of air currents, they are relegated to terra firma.

The one on the right?

Looks like those wings are made of nori, with some sushi rice inside them.

@chai2,
Portobello mushrooms are wings of certain angels?

I guess that's why the Shake Shack's Shack Stack burger is so heavenly:

Cheeseburger plus a deep fried portobello mushroom stuffed with cheese! Very Happy

@dlowan,
Aha, I just checked the angel piece's url, and that's a Hans Memling. I remember that when I ran around the NY Met in a crazed manner for days, that Memling was one of the guys I really liked, whatever the small painting was.
