About the Item
The workshop of Guido Reni (Bologna, 1575 - Bologna, 1642)
The Virgin at Prayer (or Mater dolorosa)
Oil on canvas
77 x 64 cm, framed 97 x 83 cm.
The Madonna of our canvas is depicted according to the typical iconography of the ‘mater dolorosa’, which sees her portrayed in an attitude of suffering tension combined with a feeling of extreme sweetness, with her crossed hands resting on her chest and her gaze turned upwards. It refers to the moment of Jesus' Passion when the Virgin is placed mourningfully at the foot of the cross, as described in the Gospel of John (19:25).
The incarnate is radiated by an intense light, highlighted by the monochrome background, which moulds the figure, touching it with an indescribable grace.
The painting depicts the figure of the Virgin in a strongly Baroque style, vigorous, with marked features, and is ascribed to the pictorial production of Guido Reni's workshop, reviving his youthful manner, with the figures painted in a monumental manner, in high relief, with an occasional use of chiaroscuro.
In particular, our canvas corresponds with the painting exhibited at the Kassel Art Gallery (Germany):
Mater Dolorosa, Guido Reni (follower), oil on canvas, 70 x 53 cm. Staatliche Kunstsammlungen - Schloss Wilhelmshöhe (Kassel)
The image was also exploited by the numerous pupils and collaborators who attended his school, including Giovanni Andrea Sirani, his daughter Elisabetta Sirani and Giovanni Francesco Gessi, among those closest to the master.
The palette, ennobled by the intense lapis lazuli blue of the Virgin's mantle, set in contrast to the dark background, and the compositional cut rendered from the bottom up, contribute to giving a highly theatrical and mystical vein to the composition. Moreover, the pathos contained in the intense expressiveness and the masterful stylistic execution place the painting among the highest achievements of the painter's religious production.
The high quality of this intense portrait therefore leads us to attribute its hand to one of his talented pupils.
Good overall condition, retouches. Gilded frame in good condition, 19th century.

Madonna Maria Sassoferrato Paint Oil on canvas Old master 18th Century Italian
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
Madonna with Sleeping Child
Follower of Giovan Battista Salvi known as 'il Sassoferrato' (1609 - 1685)
Roman painter 18th century
Oil on canvas
Measurements: canvas 64 x 50 cm, in frame 76 x 62 cm.
This delicate depiction of the Madonna in adoration of the Child exhibits all the human dimension and sweetness of the maternal atmosphere: Mary clasps the sleeping child to her in a tender embrace, which touches her cheek, enveloped and protected by the mantle and even a flap of the mother's veil.
The pictorial style and composition recall the ambit of Giovan Battista Salvi, the Sassoferrato, who distinguished himself expressly for this subject, with the Virgin immortalised in a humble and strongly earthly pose, depicted with simple white, red and blue colours and delicate plays of nuances on the faces and hands.
This iconographic prototype was so successful that it became the painting for countless works destined for devotion during the 17th and 18th centuries, particularly appreciated for private commissions due to its marked gentleness and formal perfection, particularly of the faces.
Born in Marchigiano, Salvi developed his activity in Rome, following the dictates of the classicist sacred painting of the Bolognese school of Reni, Carracci and Domenichino, but succeeding in having an autonomous and therefore clearly distinguishable style.
In very good overall condition, there are some small scattered restorations and some unravelling of the painted surface. Framed in a beautiful gilded frame.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
The work is sold with a certificate of authenticity and descriptive iconographic card.

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...
