About the Item

Oil on poplar panel portraying the Holy Family. Tuscany or Umbria, circa 1500-1520. The Holy Family is the name given to the family formed by Jesus of Nazareth and his parents Mary and Joseph.

A recurrent theme in painting, the cult of the Virgin Mary was not established until 1665. Wooden lining to the rear, with horsehair reinforcements. Very satisfactory condition, given its age.

  • Cuzco School Oil Painting on Canvas of the Holy Family
    Located in Hastings, GB
    An exceptional early Cuzco School painting, naive depiction of the Holy Family, presented in a contemporary wooden frame.

The school was established in the ancient city of Cusco which had previously been the capital of the Incan empire. Bernardo Bitti arrived in Peru in 1583, and with his arrival the acceleration of Cuzqueno Art flourished. During his two stays in Cusco, Bitti was commissioned to make the main altarpiece of the church of his Order, replaced by another after the earthquake, and painted some masterpieces, such as The Coronation of the Virgin, currently in the museum of the church of La Merced, and the Virgen del pajarito, in the cathedral. Cuzco School paintings are marked by their baroque influenced imagery and the subjects of the paintings shown with light focused upon them. Cuzco art...
