His gaze is slightly lowered, conveying a gentle and introspective expression that gives the piece a serene and poetic quality. Signed in the lower right corner “Ciro De Rosa”, the work masterfully recalls the atmosphere and expressive strength of 17th-century Neapolitan painting.
The painting is executed on hand-primed jute canvas, stretched over a handcrafted circular wooden frame. The soft modeling of the features and the skilled modulation of light give the figure remarkable visual and emotional impact.
The original wooden frame is gilded with gold leaf and enriched with elegant ornamental details at the corners, which enhance the classical character of the circular composition.
This painting is part of a series of four portraits by the same artist, conceived as standalone works but also harmonious when paired or displayed together as a wall composition.
Dimensions:
Painting: Ø 26 cm
with frame: approx. 40 x 40 cm
Excellent condition, ready to hang. Perfect for classic interiors, studios, libraries, or collectors of antique-style figurative portraits.
