"Madonna and Child" Carlo Maratta (Camerano 1625 - Rome 1713)
Oil on copper
Lacquered and gilded frame
Measurements: copper 18 x 24 cm, frame 32 x 38 cm
Excellent condition with no retouching to the painting.
A splendid jewel of exceptional beauty, a true pictorial virtuosity executed on a small copper plate with a vibrant visual rendering, extraordinarily effective in volumes and chromatism.
It is natural to associate this precious work with the hand of Maratta, who with a few brushstrokes distributed with enormous mastery, offers us a sample of his exceptional pictorial abilities, released from his inimitable palette.
In fact, the copper, in addition to the perfect compositional execution, amazes for the magnificent coloristic scanning with combinations of great three-dimensional effect.
The painting is extremely pleasant, free from melancholic atmospheres, often imbued with sad omens.
The scene offers a joyful image with the Child accentuatedly lively, supported standing naked by the Mother, who turns to the viewer with a serene and proud face in showing her Creature.
