Under The Angel's Protection — Painting On Vellum In A Gilded Baroque Frame
A scene full of tenderness: an angel in blue and pink robes accompanies a child, whose gaze is fixed on the angel as he points to the sky.
This painting on vellum, likely from the 18th century, is surrounded by a delicate border of painted flowers. It is displayed under glass in a carved and gilded wooden frame in the Baroque style, with scrollwork and foliage highlighted against a dark green background.
The delicacy of the small subject and the decorative presence of the frame combine to form a piece that will naturally find its place in a cabinet of curiosities or among a collection of miniatures.
Condition: wear and small visible losses in the frame’s decoration; a few marks on the vellum. Details shown in the photographs.
