A little history tells us that cherubs are divine beings in the Bible, described by the prophet Ezekiel as a combination of living creatures, with each possessing four faces, including that of a lion, an ox, an eagle and a man, plus they are said to have hands of a man, the feet of a calf and four wings.
Despite this detailed description by the prophet Ezekiel, modern day cherubs are commonly depicted as small angel babies with wings and pudgy faces.
Enjoy this collection of cute modern day cherub angel tattoos.
