Description
18th-century Sicilian or Neapolitan Master – Madonna and Child Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 81 × 67 cm. This interesting 18th-century painting from the Sicilian school depicts the Virgin and Child in a composition of great delicacy and profound devotional character. The work clearly reflects the stylistic features of late Baroque Sicilian painting, characterised by the influence of Roman classicism, the softness of the modelling, and a refined chromatic sensibility. The composition is notable for the serenity of the faces, the delicate rendering of the flesh tones, and the elegant arrangement of the drapery, all of which contribute to creating an atmosphere of intimate spirituality. The balanced relationship between the figures of the Virgin and Child, combined with the quality of the painting’s execution, places the work within the oeuvre of a Sicilian master associated with the circle of Antonino Manno, one of the leading figures in religious painting in Sicily during the 18th century. Owing to its artistic quality, iconographic interest and its status as a representative example of the Sicilian school of the period, it is a work of considerable interest to collectors of Italian Baroque paintings. Stocked in an international warehouse (within the EU). Intra-EU shipment: no import duties apply within the EU. An export licence from the country of origin may be required.
