"Large Antique Biblical Drawing From The 19th Century...the Presentation Of The Child Jesus At The Temple"
Large old biblical drawing from the 19th century, certainly made in black stone, which represents the Presentation of the Child Jesus at the Temple: it is probably the preparatory drawing for the creation of a painting or stained glass window for a church, chapel or other religious buildings since we can see a tiling... The drawing is not signed but its beautiful quality suggests the presence of an excellent artist: it should be noted that French religious painting experienced at the time of the Restoration (1820-1830) a revival among so-called Classical or academic artists which continued throughout the reign of Napoleon III.
