Oil On Canvas, Italian School, 18th Century, Depicting A Madonna And Child

Oil on canvas, Italian school, 18th century, depicting a Madonna and Child in a composition imbued with gentleness and serenity. The painter demonstrates a beautiful mastery of modeling: velvety flesh tones, carefully rendered drapery, and an intimate atmosphere achieved through refined chiaroscuro. The highly classical scene illustrates a protective young mother tenderly holding her child. The warm and harmonious tones, along with the presence of a bouquet of roses on the right, add a further decorative and symbolic dimension. The work is presented in a blackened wood frame with a gilt fillet, in good overall condition.
