PAINTING ‘CHRIST WITH THE REED’ 17th-century BOLOGNESE SCHOOL, from the circle of GUERCINO (1591–1666) Unframed oil on canvas, depicting Christ at a moment during the Passion. Dimensions: approx. 74 x 62 cm. As is, restored Sold by description Giovanni Francesco Barbieri, known as Guercino (1591–1666), is one of the great masters of Italian Baroque painting and a key figure of the Bolognese School. His work is characterised by a masterful use of chiaroscuro, great expressive intensity and a remarkable ability to convey human emotions. Influenced by both Caravaggio’s naturalism and the classical tradition of the Carracci, Guercino developed a personal style, at once powerful and sensitive, which earned him considerable renown during his lifetime. In great demand, he worked on numerous prestigious commissions, leaving behind a prolific body of work that would have a lasting impact on 17th-century Italian painting.
