Antique oil on canvas painting 18secolo Naples

About the Item

Antique oil on canvas painting depicting The Immaculate Virgin and Jesus "Hunter." Mary Immaculate is depicted with Jesus in her arms killing the serpent with the cross,indicating that Mary is preserved from sin,but it is Jesus who took sin out of the world with his cross. Generally, the Immaculata is depicted as the "woman of the Apocalypse": standing, surrounded by light against a background of heaven, blessed by the Eternal Father and surmounted by the Dove of the Holy Spirit, with a 'halo of twelve stars and with her feet on a crescent moon beneath which is an aggressive serpent, often in the form of a dragon (in the former case to recall original sin, in the latter to recall the vision of the Apocalypse). In fact, ours is depicted with the serpent at her feet as a reminder of original sin and is surrounded by a host of Angels and cherubim. Indeed, the splendid workmanship and refined coloring, evidently of the highest level, suggest attribution to a highly talented author working in Naples in the first half of the eighteenth century. The figures are well modeled,the brushwork is full-bodied and the use of chiaroscuro creates volume and plasticity.The light illuminates the figures by creating areas of chiaroscuro between the draperies of the robe,on which the use of blue and pink color is also evident,superimposed on the underlying colors,to give greater prominence to the figures.
