About the Item

Oil on canvas ''the Descent from the Cross'' or "La Descente de la Croix" in the style of Peter Paul Rubens the Descent from the Cross has been called a Baroque masterpiece — perhaps due to its monumentality — but it is also considered to be the first work of Rubens' “Classicist” period, which characterized his style from about 1612 to 1620. Highly sought after original copy of the masterpiece that Rubens painted, it shows it's age well, some repairs but when it hangs on the wall it is an impressive antique canvas which we dated around 1790, master painter unknow. Size is height 128cm, width 78cm.

"The Entombment of Christ, " Fine Copy of Titian Masterpiece, Oil on Canvas
Located in Philadelphia, PA
Beautifully painted, probably in the 19th or early 20th centuries, this copy of the famed "Le Transport du Christ au Tombeau" painting by Titian (Tiziano) in the collection of the Louvre in Paris, was recently found in the attic of a Hudson Valley monastery. The Louvre original, considered an early painting by the master, dates to the same period as his famous "Pastoral Concert" and shows the strong influence of Gorgione. This scene depicts the collaborative efforts of Joseph of Arimathea, Saint John and Nicodemus as they moved Christ's body from the cross to his tomb, watched by the two grieving Marys -- his mother and Mary Magdalene. It is not known who painted this copy, though of course artists over the years have copied the great Master paintings...
