About the Item

This baroque-style painting depicts a cherubic Cupid with rosy cheeks and golden curls, gazing upward with an expression of wonder and innocence. The composition features warm, luminous tones with the child partially draped in coral and blue fabric, while soft lighting creates an intimate, devotional atmosphere characteristic of allegorical works from this period. Unsigned. Well presented in a gilt frame with floral detailing to the corners. On paper laid to board.

18th Century Painting of Cherub/Putti
Located in Pasadena, CA
This is a charming painting of a cherub with an arm extending forward, perhaps hold out a bouquet of flowers. The painting dates to the mid-18th century and is probably cut from a larger painting. The putti is well-framed in a French a gold leafed neoclassical-style. Considering the quality of this painting, and although not signed, the painting was most probably painted by a recognized Italian 18th century artist.
