About the Item

Olio su tela. L'opera è una delle numerose repliche, con alcune varianti, del celebre soggetto realizzato dal celebre pittore bolognese Guido Reni (1574 -1642) e dalla sua bottega. La composizione, che vede la Vergine in preghiera piegata ad adorare il Bambino addormentato, è considerata una invenzione della geniale vena del Reni, la quale, in seguito al grande successo tra i collezionisti del tempo, venne poi ripresa da altri autori del XVII secolo, tra cui spicca il nome di Giovan Battista Salvi detto "Il Sassoferrato". Le due varianti più celebri di questa affascinante scena vedono la Vergine con le mani giunte in preghiera, fatta propria dal Salvi, oppure quella con le mani al petto, come questa, tipicamente reniana. Altre variazioni riguardano la posizione del capo del Bambin Gesù addormentato, rivolto verso l'alto come in questa versione, piuttosto che reclinato di lato; infine cambiano i tessuti di sfondo. Comunque spicca anche in questa replica l'intensità della scena: ad occuparla trasversalmente il corpo abbandonato nel riposo del bambino, ove la natura divina soggiace nel sonno a quella umana; sopra di esso, inclinato in gesto protettivo e allo stesso contemplativo, il corpo di Maria, che esprime tutta la tenerezza materna ma anche, nel gesto delle mani, l'adorazione del mistero incarnato rappresentato dal figlioletto. Le cromie vive dei tessuti - il cuscino su cui è adagiato Gesù, il tendaggio retrostante, gli abiti della Madre -, fanno risaltare la luminosità degli incarnati. Restaurato e ritelato, il dipinto è presentato in cornice di fine '800.

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...
