Great religious painting from the first half of the 17th century. Oil on canvas artwork depicting the Flagellation, one of the most dramatic moments of the Passion. Christ, tied to the column, is whipped by four tormentors, depicted in various poses and in full motion.
Artwork of extraordinary pictorial quality, the dramatic use of chiaroscuro and the meticulous naturalistic details make it a valuable work attributable to the Emilian school of the early 17th century. The architectural setting, with arches and openings to the outside, lends depth, while the light coming from the side creates a marvelous play of shadows. The scene, of great emotional power, is characterized by the vigorous anatomical rendering and the dynamism of the composition.
The rarity of the subject, treated with such energy, makes it a collector's item capable of enriching both a private collection and a classical or modern reception room. 19th-century carved and gilded wooden frame, with some signs of age. The artwork has already been restored with relining, replacement of the stretcher, and repainting in small areas. Overall, it is in good condition. Internal dimensions: H 78 x W 61 cm.
