About the Item

Beautiful oil painting on canvas framed in an elegant canvas frame and inside a carved and gilded frame with mirror. The work portrays a young woman with enchanting features, dark hair and blue eyes. The girl's gaze is directed toward a distant point, as if she were immersed in her thoughts. The young woman wears a dress of fine white fabric, accompanied by a typical white veil that partially covers her hair. The great refinement and attention to detail are evident; the romantic style is clearly perceptible in this work of remarkable quality. This masterpiece is signed by the author, the famous Campanian painter Gaetano Esposito, active in the second half of the 19th century.

SECOND HALF OF THE 19th CENTURY DANTE AND BEATRICE PAINTING BY RAFFAELE SORBI
Located in Firenze, FI
Beautiful oil painting on canvas, framed in an elegant carved and gilded wooden frame, complete with mirror. This work, belonging to the famous Florentine painter Raffaello Sorbi, bears the artist's signature at the bottom right and is dated 1863, placing it in his early youthful production. Sorbi's stylistic characteristics are clearly visible, in which the warm Macchiaioli tones blend with neo-Gothic and romantic subjects, taken from the Renaissance and the Middle Ages.

Against the backdrop of Renaissance Florence, you can see people entering and leaving the church, while on the sides of the main scene there are figures of the people and a little girl sitting on the steps.
