This very elegant large table from the 1500s depicts Santa Barbara seated on a throne showing her iconographic attributes. The left hand holds the tower and the right hand on the chest with the palm of martyrdom. The Saint is represented full-length in a solemn pose in the center of the scene. The drapes that descend from the corners to its sides increase the royalty of the Protagonist. The paintwork is extremely elegant with a range of colors of rare refinement and a perfectly calibrated color combination. The author transfers his inclination towards the technique of the fresco to which he is certainly accustomed to the painting. The result is really very pleasant and the work hanging on the wall is of the most beautiful effect. The age and originality of the work are guaranteed by a written certificate.
