17th Century Oil on Canvas Italian Religious Painting Saint Cecilia at the Organ

1650

About the Item

Great 17th century Italian painting. Oil on canvas artwork depicting a wonderful Saint Cecilia at the organ, of notable pictorial quality. Painting attributable to the workshop of Carlo Dolci (1616-1686), lacking authentication. Gifted with a superb technique, he was the greatest Florentine painter of the 17th century and his works are characterised by an idealised beauty, also flaunted by the very smooth rendering of the flesh tones on which a pale astral light is refracted. The Christian martyr is depicted while playing an organ because she is the patron saint of music, instrumentalists and singers. It is worth noting the quality in the creation of the dress, rich in splendid details and transparencies. 20th century frame in carved and gilded wood, of beautiful decoration. Painting already restored with relining, replacement of the frame and repainting of the color in small spots. Overall in good state of preservation. Internal size H 84 x W 69 cm.

Portrait Of a Woman Painting - - oil on canvas -- Woman with a Black Hair' Hal Frater passed away on February 3, 2008, just a month from celebrating his 99th birthday. Hal Frater had a long and prolific career. He became a sought after commercial artist for over fifty years . All the while he would return to his studio and paint for himself rather than his clients. Yet he always retained his illustration roots in wanting to tell a story on canvas with his keen eye of observation on the human condition. Often he would join fellow artists in informal sessions and paint from a model - no formal art school training but a mutually beneficial learning experience. His contemporaries that influenced him were Jack Levine, Raphael Soyer, John Sloan, Thomas Hart Benton, Reginald Marsh and Phillip Reisman...
