The work, signed in the lower right corner “Ciro De Rosa,” powerfully evokes the atmosphere and expressive strength of the Neapolitan painting school of the 17th century.

The painting is executed on hand-gessoed jute canvas, mounted on a handcrafted circular wooden stretcher. The soft rendering of the facial features and the skillful modulation of light result in a figure of remarkable visual and emotional impact.

The original wooden frame, gilded with gold leaf, is enriched with elegant raised decorative motifs at the corners, framing the central tondo and enhancing its classical character.

This painting is part of a series of four portraits by the same artist, conceived as standalone works but also harmonious when displayed as a pair or grouped together as a wall composition.

Painting: Ø 26 cm
with frame: approx. 40 x 40 cm

Excellent condition, ready to hang. Perfect for classic interiors, studies, libraries, or collectors of figurative portraits with an antique feel.
