About the Item

Painting oil on panel measuring 40 x 30 cm without frame and 48 x 38 with frame representing a great bishop of the Venetian school from the first half of the 18th century. Very curious and refined table representing an important religious figure of the time; the colors of the dress and the stole around the neck are very delicate and have the same colors as the background, on which this figure stands out, denoting humanity, kindness and a feeling of loyalty following the most intimate precepts of the Christian religion. The coffee table with this bright green fabric is also interesting with well-designed and colorful objects on top, probably having symbolic value. The well-tapered hands as well as the good and at the same time serious look are also characteristics of this important character. The beauty of Venetian painting must be noted; even when the dimensions are small, the colors are able to express themselves strongly giving us a feeling of peace and harmony, creating a real bond between the character depicted here and the viewer.  The paintings and works of art published here are my exclusive property and therefore are always available to be viewed, by appointment, in my exhibition sites located in Sanremo and Brescia. This item , like all our objects, is sold accompanied by a photographic certificate FIMA of authenticity and lawful origin; this document identifies the object by adding more value to the article. We take care and personally organize the packaging and shipping of our items with insurance all over the world. Mr. Riccardo Moneghini Art historian
