Description
St. Matthew the Evangelist with Angel Roman School, 17th century oil on canvas
The work depicts St. Matthew the Evangelist in a half-length pose, caught in the act of writing on an open volume, supported by a lectern. The elderly and bearded saint is flanked by a young angel who approaches him with a participating attitude, suggesting divine inspiration. The scene takes place in a dark setting, illuminated by a soft light that shapes the volumes and focuses attention on the protagonists.The composition, collected and devoid of accessory elements, reflects a classicist layout of a Roman matrix, traceable to the lesson of Andrea Sacchi, evident in the narrative clarity and measured dialogue between the figures.Within frame.
