Product description
We are pleased to present this oil on canvas from the 18th-century Italian school. A splendid religious painting depicting a classic subject of Christian art: the Madonna with Child Jesus and the Infant Saint John the Baptist. The Virgin Mary is positioned on the right, tenderly observing the two children. She wears a light red robe covered by a green and brown cloak. Her right hand is raised in a protective blessing. The Infant Jesus is seated in the center on his mother's lap. He is completely naked and turns toward the Infant Saint John, holding him tenderly. Saint John the Baptist is on the left, characterized by a darker complexion, embracing Jesus and returning his gaze. The composition is very classical and typical of this religious depiction. The pictorial quality is good, with strong chiaroscuro contrasts between the dark background and the illuminated bodies in the foreground. The brushstrokes are soft on the children's faces and curly hair. The style strongly reflects the Baroque painting tradition of the Italian school. A marvelous painting for its pictorial quality and profound religious message. If you love ancient Italian religious art, you absolutely must add this splendid painting to your collection. The painting is being sold as pictured, without a traditional frame. It comes with a simple, recently made wooden frame. The painting has undergone restoration: it has been relined, there are some retouchings in the paint layer, and there are visible craquelure consistent with the age of the painting. Frame dimensions (cm): Height: 59.5 Width: 66.5 Depth: 2.5 Painting dimensions (cm): Height: 58
