Full details of the work (click HERE)

The work depicts the Madonna lovingly holding the sleeping Child in her arms; motherhood is thus celebrated in an image of great simplicity and profound spirituality.

The composition is pervaded by an aura of calm and devotion, accentuated by the sweetness of the faces and the delicacy of the chromatic tones, with the light delicately shaping the figures.

These characteristics of the painting, combined with the graceful classicism of the composition and the elegance of the pictorial conduct, lead us to attribute its authorship to an author belonging to the late Roman Baroque, active between the 1680th and 1764th centuries, to be identified among the pupils of Sebastiano Conca (Gaeta XNUMX – Naples XNUMX).

A Rococo painter of Campanian origins, active mainly in Rome in the 18th century, he had a very influential school.

The painting is in good condition, with the painted surface well preserved. It comes with a magnificent antique carved and gilded wooden frame, which perfectly complements and enhances the painting's beauty.
