“Abundantia”, Oil on Panel, Attributed to Angelica 'Maria Anna' Kauffman

About the Item

Behold "Abundantia," an oil masterpiece on panel, often attributed to the accomplished artist Angelica (Maria Anna) Kauffman (Italian/English, 1741-1807). This remarkable work of art is a compelling portrayal of the allegory of abundance, where a poised female figure cradles the iconic horn of plenty in her arms. By her side, a majestic slumbering lion adds depth to the allegorical narrative, while two playful putti, bearing a cornucopia overflowing with coins, complete this captivating scene. Though her signature remains elusive, the essence of "Abundantia" transcends the need for a name. The artistry speaks for itself, inviting viewers to appreciate the attention to detail, the grace of the composition, and the thematic richness that lies within. This timeless piece is thoughtfully presented within a complementary frame, which serves to enhance the artwork's visual impact while preserving its historical and artistic significance. "Abundantia" stands as a testament to Angelica Kauffman's artistic mastery, her ability to convey complex allegories through her brushwork, and her contribution to the rich tapestry of art history. With every viewing, this masterpiece invites us to contemplate the bountiful blessings of life and the enduring allure of classic symbolism.
