Dimension with frame: 35 x 29,7 x 3,3 cm. A finely executed miniature devotional painting depicting the Madonna tenderly embracing the Christ Child. Executed in oil on copper and dating from the late 18th to early 19th century, the composition displays the intimate scale and luminous surface characteristic of copper paintings. The Virgin is shown wearing a deep blue mantle highlighted with delicate gilded details and crowned by a circle of stars, while the Christ Child rests affectionately in her arms. The work reflects the enduring influence of Baroque religious imagery and evokes the devotional paintings produced throughout the Spanish world during the colonial period, while remaining firmly rooted in the broader Continental European tradition. Its small scale, refined execution, and warm devotional character make it an appealing collector's piece. The painting is presented in an impressive carved and ebonized wooden frame that beautifully complements the richness of the composition. A charming example of late 18th-century religious art, combining devotional intimacy, Baroque sensibility, and the luminous qualities unique to oil on copper. madonna and child, virgin mary, christ child, oil on copper, copper painting, religious painting, devotional painting, catholic art, christian art, sacred art, baroque religious art, baroque devotional painting, continental european school, spanish colonial taste, spanish colonial influence, antique religious artwork, ecclesiastical art, crowned madonna, star crown madonna, virgin and child, christian iconography, late 18th century painting, circa 1800, antique oil on copper, miniature painting, devotional icon, old master style, european religious art, framed religious painting...

Flower Garland Surrounding the Virgin and Child, after Jan Brueghel the Elder (flowers), Circle of Frans Francken II (figures), Antwerp, circa 1615–1625, Oil on copper This finely executed garland painting on copper belongs to the Antwerp tradition of collaborative devotional cabinet pictures developed in the early seventeenth century. The meticulously rendered floral wreath may be associated with the circle of Jan Brueghel the Elder, while the central figures are attributable to the circle of Frans Francken II. The copper support, favored for high-quality works of this type, provides an exceptionally smooth surface that permits minute precision of detail and preserves the jewel-like luminosity of the colours. Set against a dark, subtly modulated background, the oval garland appears to float freely within the pictorial field, leaving the corners and margins open and lending the composition an airy sense of balance. The wreath is constructed from a carefully orchestrated rhythm of large, voluminous blossoms—roses in varying hues, carnations, anemones, and marigolds—interwoven with a profusion of smaller flowers, leaves, and stems. Each bloom is individually characterized, displaying botanical precision, crisp highlights, and delicate tonal transitions consistent with early seventeenth-century Flemish flower painting...

A masterful example of Italian Mannerist painting, this exceptional panel was composed by the renowned Florentine painter Domenico Puligo. Alongside Jacopo Pontormo and Rosso Fiorentino, Puligo is remembered as one of the foremost figures of the Mannerist movement that rose to prominence during the 16th century in Florence. This panel of the Virgin Mary with the Christ child and Saint John the Baptist is a characteristic example of his celebrated devotional images, which grace museums such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York), Museo del Prado (Madrid), Palazzo Borghese (Rome), and Palazzo Pitti (Florence), among many others. Puligo’s skill with color is fully demonstrated in the beautifully preserved work. Considering its age, the vibrancy and the sheer range of color is remarkable. The Virgin Mary’s crimson dress...
