About the Item

This exquisite 18th-century Peruvian oil on canvas is a masterful example of Spanish Colonial art, embodying the profound devotion and artistic sophistication of the period. The painting depicts Saint Joseph in an intimate moment of spiritual reflection, seated with a lily—a symbol of purity and divine favor—placed delicately at his side. Above him, the Christ Child is portrayed enthroned on clouds, holding a globe to signify his dominion over the world, while cherubim hover in adoration, enhancing the celestial atmosphere of the scene. Rendered with meticulous detail and vibrant coloration, the composition reflects the baroque sensibilities characteristic of colonial religious art, with an emphasis on emotive expressions and symbolic richness. The interplay of light and shadow, coupled with the refined depiction of fabrics and textures, adds depth and a sense of transcendence to the work. The painting is housed in an intricately carved wooden frame, typical of the period, showcasing an openwork design that harmonizes with the sacred theme. This remarkable piece serves as both a devotional artwork and a testament to the cultural and artistic achievements of 18th-century Peru under Spanish influence. Perfect for collectors of Spanish Colonial art or those seeking a significant historical and religious work, this painting radiates both spiritual significance and artistic grandeur. A rare find, it captures the essence of colonial-era devotion with its masterful execution and timeless beauty. Framed: 92,5cm x 72cm W. Canvas: 72cm H x 51cm W.
