About the Item

Examining with interest this "Sacred Scene" from the end of the 1500s/beginning of the 17th century (oil painting on canvas, 32 x 26 cm without frame and 40 x 33 cm with frame) representing the Madonna supporting the Infant Jesus on her knees, S. Giovannino with the lamb of god, I can say that it is a Cremona school close to the Panfilo Nuvolone. The figures are arranged against the background of a generic colorful landscape, fresh and with a great perspective which makes the painting, albeit small, lovable and fresh. The domestic familiarity with which this scene is presented is expressed by a loving language and a calibrated expository cadence, adhering to the Lombard classicist current of the second decade ( maximum ) of the seventeenth century. This work shines for its formal rigor mixed with a nonchalant ease of execution; sharp and varied cues, loving and delicate gestures emerge clearly on the canvas thanks to skilful luminous contrasts and the development of the canvas, calm and cordial in the form but strong and disruptive in the colors and in the strength of love as can be seen in the gaze deeply imbued with love of the Madonna for the child and for the sweetness of the emotional, empathetic and physical exchange of Jesus with San Giovannino and for the tranquility of the lamb on the left. It should be noted the safe tracing of the brushstrokes, almost drawn and strongly illuminated which reveal a graphic preparation and a cultured and erudite pictorial conduct and with a remarkable skill in knowing how to render the drapery and their movements that make me think of Panfilo Nuvolone (Cremona 1580 - 1630).

Madonna Maria Piola Paint Oil on canvas 17/18th Century Old master Religious
Located in Riva del Garda, IT
Anton Maria Piola (Genoa, 1654 - 1715) circle Madonna and Child Genoese school of the second half of the 17th century Oil on canvas 93 x 74 cm.- In antique frame 110 x 92 cm. (Work with expertise by Dr. Arabella Cifani) In the pleasing work proposed, depicting a classical Nativity scene, the Madonna is immortalised in adoration as she gently holds the sheet on which the Child is lying, with a gesture of protection and pride that facilitates an atmosphere of intimate recollection, in addition to the presence of three cherubs at the top. The stylistic analysis of the canvas can easily be traced back to a painter of the Genoese school and active during the 17th century, specifically with the devotional works from the workshop of Domenico Piola (Genoa, 1627-1703), an absolute protagonist of Genoese Baroque culture. Piola was the owner of the most important city painting workshop of the time, known as 'Casa Piola', where his sons Paolo Gerolamo and Anton Maria also collaborated. His production, which specialised in a type of highly decorative, profane and allegorical paintings, destined for the decoration of Genoese patrician palaces, also included a refined series of works of a religious nature. In particular, the style of our beautiful breast painting...
