About the Item

Lodovico Buffetti (Verona, 1722 - 1782) "Story of Rebecca" Oil on Canvas Framed: 89 x 71 cm Flat: 74 x 56 cm This exquisite 18th-century oil painting by Lodovico Buffetti, a distinguished artist from Verona, depicts the biblical story of Rebecca, a revered figure in the Old Testament. Rich in Baroque dynamism and Rococo elegance, Buffetti masterfully composes a scene of dramatic interaction and emotional depth, capturing the moment when Rebecca offers water to the servant of Isaac—an event symbolizing divine guidance and predestined love. Buffetti’s refined brushwork and vibrant color palette bring a theatrical quality to the composition, where light and movement direct the viewer’s gaze across the expressive faces and gestures of the figures. The interplay of rich drapery, architectural elements, and pastoral scenery enhances the depth and grandeur of the narrative. Encased in an elegant period-style gilded frame, this painting embodies the sophisticated artistry of 18th-century Italian religious and historical painting. A remarkable addition for collectors of Baroque and Rococo art, this piece not only reflects the devotional storytelling of its era but also serves as a statement work of refined aesthetic and cultural significance.
