About the Item

A refined 18th-century Italian painting. This artwork oil on canvas depicts a splendid Madonna and Child with a cherub, crafted with exquisite skill. The composition dates stylistically to the first half of the 18th century; the diffuse luminosity and delicate chromatic transitions recall the models of the Tuscan school. The figure of the Virgin, with her oval face and absorbed gaze turned heavenward, is rendered with touching sweetness. The tender and plump baby Jesus nestles naturally in his mother's womb, while the little angel peering down from above with splendid golden curls contributes to an atmosphere of celestial serenity. The Virgin's soft drapery skillfully alternates pink and blue tones, with the use of light caressing the volumes with an almost vaporous effect. Its unique format makes it ideal for an elegant living space, whether classic or contemporary. The canvas is mounted in a striking 20th-century octagonal gilded wooden frame, beautifully decorated but with some signs of aging. The painting has already been restored with re-lining, replacement of the stretcher, and repainting in small areas. Overall, it is in good condition. Internal dimensions: H 115 x W 99 cm. NOT SIGNED

Madonna Maria Piola Paint Oil on canvas 17/18th Century Old master Religious
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
Anton Maria Piola (Genoa, 1654 - 1715) circle Madonna and Child Genoese school of the second half of the 17th century Oil on canvas 93 x 74 cm.- In antique frame 110 x 92 cm. (Work with expertise by Dr. Arabella Cifani) In the pleasing work proposed, depicting a classical Nativity scene, the Madonna is immortalised in adoration as she gently holds the sheet on which the Child is lying, with a gesture of protection and pride that facilitates an atmosphere of intimate recollection, in addition to the presence of three cherubs at the top. The stylistic analysis of the canvas can easily be traced back to a painter of the Genoese school and active during the 17th century, specifically with the devotional works from the workshop of Domenico Piola (Genoa, 1627-1703), an absolute protagonist of Genoese Baroque culture. Piola was the owner of the most important city painting workshop of the time, known as 'Casa Piola', where his sons Paolo Gerolamo and Anton Maria also collaborated. His production, which specialised in a type of highly decorative, profane and allegorical paintings, destined for the decoration of Genoese patrician palaces, also included a refined series of works of a religious nature. In particular, the style of our beautiful breast painting...
