Description

Virgin and Child, Folk School, 19th century Oil on canvas. Dimensions 69 x 58 cm. A half-length portrait of the Virgin Mary holding the Christ Child, both with halos and united by a gesture of intimate closeness accentuated by the flower the Child holds against his mother’s breast. The dark background highlights the fair flesh tones and the vibrancy of the red and green of the garments, lending the scene a direct and evocative presence. The execution reflects a popular 19th-century sensibility, focused on the tenderness of the relationship and the devotional power of the image rather than on academic detail.
