About the Item

This intimate genre painting depicts pilgrims gathering in a crowded interior scene, rendered in the characteristic chiaroscuro technique with dramatic contrasts between light and shadow against a dark background. The composition focuses on a woman standing on a barrel in the centre of the crowd, eyes rolling back as she experiences a religious vision. Unsigned. Presented in a gilt frame with floral detailing to the corners of the frame. On canvas.
