AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller




It is an oil painting on canvas from the Caravaggesque period, probably from the 17th century, depicting a religious scene, perhaps Saint Sylvester Pope or the Flagellation of Christ.
Subject: The work depicts two figures, one male in pontifical garments or simple robes and the other kneeling, in a dark and dramatic setting typical of the seventeenth century.
Style: The style is attributed to an artist active in Naples or Italy, influenced by Caravaggio.
Technique: It is an oil on canvas of oval shape, set in a dark wooden frame.
Provenance: similar works have been found in private collections in Naples and on the online art market.
Measurements 1.10x90 cm, painting only 90x80
The necessary repairs, if any, are provided free of charge, and should also be considered valuable as they are very old. COMPLAINTS ARE NOT ACCEPTED.
What I wrote about the painting is based on research, and it was said by an expert, but I do not have an authenticity certificate.
Various parts of the restored painting are clearly visible in the photo; the lower part is cracked but still intact.
Don't make offers to raise the price, then don't buy.
Only create problems for those who sell.


Offer number 6046 Italy, do not make offers and block the sale.
It is not welcomed in my auctions.
No shipments outside the European Community.
No islands or Cyprus.
Origin: private house
A painting not to be underestimated has a value beyond its era.
