We offer a sacred artwork of rare intensity and collector's value: an antique oil painting on a panel dating back to the 19th century. The work stands out for its quality of pictorial execution and profound emotional charge, presented in a splendid gilded wooden frame that enhances its luminosity.
Subject and Style: The painting depicts a scene of mystical ecstasy of great expressive power. The Saint, captured in a moment of spiritual abandon, is supported by an angelic creature, while a second angel above plays the violin to comfort him with celestial music, surrounded by cherubs among the clouds. The composition is masterful: the skillful use of chiaroscuro and the warm, enveloping color palette lend drama and three-dimensionality to the figures. The faces are rendered with miniature finesse, conveying a feeling of profound and vibrant devotion.
Material and Finish: The work is created using oil on a wooden panel, typical of the ancient small-format painting tradition intended for high-ranking private devotion. The painting is set in an imposing gilded wooden frame, richly decorated with scrollwork and floral motifs at the corners, which completes the work, giving it a noble and antique appearance.
