About the Item

Penitent Mary Magdalene, Baroque Oil on Canvas, Late 17th–Early 18th Century, Original Frame Baroque oil painting depicting Saint Mary Magdalene in Penitence, dating from the late 17th to early 18th century, presented in its original period frame. This fine religious artwork, rendered on canvas and later professionally relined, represents the saint in a moment of deep spiritual reflection, typical of Catholic devotional imagery from the Baroque era. The composition shows Mary Magdalene seated with flowing hair, a red robe, and a contemplative expression, accompanied by a skull—her traditional symbol of vanitas and penitence. The quality of the execution and color palette suggests a Southern European origin, likely French or Spanish. The piece bears a partially legible label on the reverse reading “Protection France”, and an additional gallery label from the prestigious Sala Gaspar in Barcelona, known for exhibiting high-caliber Old Master and modern art. This is a superb collector's piece for those specializing in sacred art, Old Masters, or Baroque religious paintings. A rare find with strong presence and historical relevance. Condition: Very good overall. The canvas has been relined. Minor wear consistent with age. Original frame shows some insect traces on the back (inactive), typical for frames of this period. Dimensions: Canvas: 77 × 57 cm (30.3 × 22.4 in) Framed: 95 × 75 cm (37.4 × 29.5 in) Medium: Oil on canvas Style: Baroque, Religious Art Period: Circa 1690–1720 Origin: France or Spain Frame: Original 17th–18th century carved and gilded wooden frame Provenance: Old label mentioning “Protection France” Sala Gaspar gallery, Barcelona

Teller 3
By Frank Arnold
Located in Fresno, CA
"Teller 3" Oil on Canvas presents a singular form and background in varying shades of green, blue, yellow and white and eart tones. Frank Arnold is viewed as one of the foremost abstract figurative painters and sculptors of our time. He is a living master guided by a personal mission to “turn on a light in the human soul,” through his passionate creation of “Messengers” from his deeper mind connection with Carl Jung's archetypal images, the collective unconscious, and Jungian Synchronicity. These unconscious forms from his deeper mind resonate as personal messages of universal acceptance, reaching out to the viewer. Arnold has been honored as IAD Artist of the year 2018 by International Artist Day, and 2013 FAC Horizon Artist Award. He has exhibited his artwork in numerous galleries and museums and is in collections worldwide. Arnold divides his working days between oil painting in San Jose del Cabo, Baja Sur...
