About the Item
Oil on Canvas.
Composition repeatedly replicated by followers and students of the Bassano school, particularly from a work by Jacopo Bassano (1515 -1592).
In the original scene, captured here with fidelity to the composition of the figures but not to the colors, Bassano had approached the theme on the one hand respecting tradition and on the other hand introducing innovations. In fact, they make a scenic backdrop of archaeological ruins, a frequent element in Italian Nativity iconography. Here we see a row of broken columns on a high pedestal, modeled after Greek temples, to which a hut is leaning. The unusual architectural structure symbolizes the overcoming of paganism and the building of the Christian church, of which the birth of Jesus is the first founding act.
The shepherds occupy the center of the scene, and if the left side of the painting were not there, it might look like a genre scene with a rural character. The shepherd from behind is kneeling, showing his bare feet, a reminder of his extreme humility, and holding a lamb, a sacrificial animal par excellence, a reference to the future Passion of Christ. On the far right is a curious insert: a squatting little boy blowing on a glowing embers in a futile effort to rekindle a flame.
In this replica, the yellow and red colors of the robes of the two shepherds in the center and the little boy on the right stand out, prevailing in vibrancy even over the figures of the Holy Family and emerging from the ochre hues of the landscape and architectural structures in the background.
The painting was restored and re-tinted in the 19th century, with replacement of the frame.(There is coeval writing in English on it, probably export addresses).
It is presented in styled frame.
