Description
Virgin and Child, Italian School, 17th Century
Oil painting on copper. Dimensions: 22 x 17 cm and 30 x 24 cm. A devotional composition centered on the figure of the Virgin Mary holding the Christ Child, serenely and delicately positioned against a dark background that enhances the intimacy of the scene. The Virgin appears with a composed expression and gentle gesture, while the Child, rendered with naturalism, establishes an emotional connection through physical proximity and the direction of his gaze. The modeling is delicate, with soft transitions of light and shadow that define the volumes and add depth to the flesh tones. The colour palette, dominated by reds, greens, and earth tones, reinforces the balance and visual harmony of the whole. The work is presented in a period tortoiseshell frame, which underscores its precious nature. In terms of style and painting technique, the piece belongs to the Italian school of the 18th century.
