About the Item

Italian painting from the second half of the 17th century. Oil artwork on canvas depicting the martyrdom of Saint Bartholomew the Apostle. He was one of the closest disciples to Jesus and has been represented countless times by great artists because he suffered one of the most brutal tortures suffered by the holy martyrs. In fact, he was captured and skinned alive because he had brought the word of Christ to distant lands. A painting from the Neapolitan school of great pictorial quality, particularly evident in the representation of the Saint's complexion and in the magnificent robes of his executioners. 20th century frame in carved, gilded and painted wood with a faux marble effect, with some signs of aging. Painting that has undergone restoration with relining, replacement of the frame and restoration of color in some places. Overall in good state of preservation. Sight size H 120 x W 86 cm.
