About the Item

Sancte Ioseph, 2023 Oil on Panel with Frame, 17.5 x 20.5 inches With luminous depths, “Sancte Ioseph” presents an intimate portrayal of St. Joseph gently holding the Christ child, accompanied by freshly plucked spring lilies. Set against a rich, velvety black background, the composition is infused with a warm golden glow showcasing its deep saturated colors. The sumptuous textures, liquid impastos, and soft scumbles beckon the viewer to revel in the tactile nature of the work. Warm browns tints and deep purples dissipate into the mossy, rain-soaked countryside greens and glowing rose madder. Varpucanskis’s brushwork and subtle use of grisaille and bold placement of opaque whites yield to a visually alluring, emotionally reticent image. Encased in a quaint black frame, with trimmed antiqued golden accents, and sealed with a lustrous varnish, this elegant painting embodies a formal emotional resonance, suited for St. Joseph’s quiet, deeply silent nature and interior life.
