Description
Saint Teresa. Copy by Luis Tristán. Signed Antonio Grosso. Spanish School. 20th century. Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 50 x 40 cm (unframed); 57 x 47 cm (framed). A depiction of Saint Teresa of Jesus in a prayerful pose, her face imbued with mysticism and a profound inner expression. The nun is shown wrapped in her black and white habit, emphasising her clasped hands and her contemplative gaze directed upwards. The light falling from the side accentuates the contours of her face and hands, creating a strong contrast with the dark background. The composition reveals a clear interest in spiritual values, emulating the intense expressiveness of Luis Tristán, a disciple of El Greco. The work is signed by Antonio Grosso and forms part of a Spanish devotional tradition influenced by Mannerism, reinterpreted in a modern style with firm brushstrokes and restrained drama.
