About the Item

St. Peter And The Rooster 1600 oil painting on canvas reinteled with new frame. The painting was probably part of a larger composition depicting St. Peter repenting, weeping. Italian school of the XVIIth century. Unsigned, unframed. From a dark background emerges St. Peter marked by remorse for betrayal, but repentant, as manifested by the hand on his chest; the saint is depicted with a brown beard and hair, dressed in a brown cloak over a white tunic. The apostle's gaze is turned upward, toward a light of faith that overcomes darkness and illuminates the face through divine mercy and compassion. To the right of the saint we find a rooster in profile. The rooster is one of the iconographic attributes of St. Peter the Apostle that emphasizes the episode in which he denied Jesus and his subsequent repentance. In fact, notice that St. Peter and the rooster are looking in the same direction, toward the light. The work is in good condition, with restorations consistent with the date. It comes from a private villa in Lombardy. This artwork is shipped from Italy. Under existing legislation, any artwork in Italy created over 70 years ago requires a governative license for export called Belle Arti. The shipping may require additional 2-3 handling weeks to require and get the license according to the final destination of the artwork.
