Votive And Naïve Painting, Gouache, Italian Ex‑voto, 1920
Artist: G.amarotto
Domestic interior imbued with deep religious fervour.
Two elderly figures lie bedridden, probably ill, while at the foot of their bed two people – likely their children – pray on their knees.
The sacred vision of the Virgin and Child appearing in a cloud above the scene suggests that this work was conceived as an ex‑voto.
The simple and touching composition reflects the family devotion and straightforward narrative typical of Italian folk painting from the early 20th century.
Condition: Good overall condition; light surface wear and minor abrasions.
