Summary

Description
English: Left side part of a Theosophical mural painting in the drawing room at 3 Ely Place, Dublin (former Theosophical Society meeting place). There, according to Sally North (15 February 2023), "A Labyrinth of Images: WB Yeats and the Celtic Order" (29 minutes and 40 seconds in the seminar video uploaded to Youtube: [1]), George William Russell and W. B. Yeats painted it in the late 1880s. According to Summerfield, Henry (1975). That Myriad-minded Man: A Biography of George William Russell "A.E.", 1867-1935, p. 66 ([2]), a Theosophical writer described this painting as "an arrangement of nature spirits" between a heavenly Deva and a crouched human figure over our globe. Among the spirits is a winged angelic figure, an "augoeides" (originally a Neoplatonic term for "body of light", adopted by the Theosophists) or Yeats' daimon.
