Oil Painting On Copper Depicting Saint Anthony Of Padua With The Child, Early 18th Century
The painting depicts Saint Anthony of Padua with the Infant Jesus.
The iconography is classical and incorporates the traditional symbols associated with the saint:
The Franciscan habit: the brown robe tied with a cord, which identifies the order to which the saint belonged.
The apparition of the Infant Jesus: the child lying on a white cloth in the arms of Saint Anthony, evoking the famous mystical vision that took place in Camposampiero.
The lily: the flower held by the Child, which in Christian tradition symbolizes the purity and holiness of the friar
Against the dark background, a tree emerges, along with warm, soft tones typical of Italian devotional painting from the Baroque era (17th–18th centuries).
Dimensions of the painting: 25 cm x 20 cm
