Nativity – Adoration Of The Child, Painted On Copper
A delightful small Nativity – Adoration of the Child, painted in oil on copper.
In the center, Baby Jesus lies on straw, wrapped in a cloth. To his left, the Virgin Mary, wearing a pink robe and a blue cloak, is depicted in a meditative pose. Behind him, Saint Joseph, wearing a blue tunic and an ochre cloak, appears absorbed in meditation. On the right, a kneeling shepherd in simple clothing participates in the scene with devotion. In the background, inside the hut, the donkey's head can be glimpsed.
The composition is intimate and close-up, typical of small copperplates intended for private devotion.
Signs of ancient patina and natural wear are visible, consistent with its age and technique, which enhance its historical appeal.
Overall, this is a valuable collector's item, representative of the 17th-century Italian or Northern Italian tradition.
