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 tranquility and devotion, accentuated by the sweetness of the faces and the delicate color 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 technique, lead us to attribute its authorship to a late roman baroque artist, active between the 17th and 18th centuries, identified among the students of sebastiano conca (gaeta 1680 – naples 1764).

a rococo painter of campanian origins, active primarily in rome in the 18th century, he had a highly influential school.

the painting is in good condition, with its painted surface well preserved. It comes with a magnificent antique frame in carved and gilded wood, which perfectly complements and enhances the beauty of the painting.
