AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Enamelled tin-glazed Maiolica, polychromy fired at high temperature from the 18th century - museum quality
Description of the work
Subject: Colorful majolica panel from Montelupo Fiorentino
Dating: 1768
Subject: Saints Crispino and Crispiniano
The panel depicts Saints Crispino and Crispiniano, protectors of shoemakers, represented in a symbolic landscape with fluttering angels. Iconographic attributes relevant to their craft are visible: a chair, a basket, and work tools. The saints are identified by inscriptions on a scroll, including the date 1768, which is legible near the name of Saint Crispino.
Material and Technique
Hand-painted polychrome Maiolica. The color palette – dominated by ferracci yellows, ramina greens, and blues – is fully consistent with the 18th-century Montelupo production. The graphic style, the rendering of the figures, and the composition confirm a handcrafted production of a devotional nature.
Condition of preservation
The work shows signs of normal wear due to age. A horizontal restoration line is visible in the central part of the panel, consistent with a previous conservation intervention. Overall, the condition is considered good.
Authenticity
Based on stylistic, technical, and material characteristics, the work is to be considered authentic and attributable to the production of
Montelupo Fiorentino in the 18th century.
STIMA
Based on the conditions, execution quality, and market comparisons, a value estimate for the work is assigned, ranging from:
€ 1,200.00 – € 1,500.00 (Prof. Guido Concari Art Historian – Expert)
Ancient and valuable maiolica, very rare. Ideal for collecting and investment. The piece is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity in accordance with the law and an art historian's expertise.
Extraordinary live opera performance
Condition report: work in good preservation condition with signs of age and conservative restoration in the central part.
