AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Exceptionally without reservation!

Spectacular painting of the 20th century.
Depict an elegant mythological scene in a classical taste, dominated by the central figure of a young goddess or nymph lying in a wooded landscape, accompanied by putti. The protagonist, rendered with delicate sensuality, is caught in a moment of intimacy and stillness, while one of the putti approaches her playfully, holding a bow and arrows, a clear reference to the symbolic world of Eros and love.
The natural setting, with trees, open sky, and vegetation, creates a harmonious and dreamlike frame, typical of the painting tradition inspired by the Italian Renaissance and Baroque. The colors are soft and warm, with luminous skin tones and delicate tonal transitions that give depth and grace to the composition.
To complete the work, a magnificent gilded frame finely carved, decorated with classical motifs, which frames the scene with refinement and balance, further enhancing the painting.

Please note that, given the age of the work, there may be small defects, breaks, or missing parts: natural signs of time that testify to its authenticity and history.
The photographs were taken under direct spotlight light, to highlight every detail.

Our shipments are fast, professional, and packaged in perfect protection: hence the related shipping costs.

In accordance with current regulations on works of art, no lots will be shipped outside Europe (Schengen area), except by private agreement at the buyer's expense.

Seller's Story

For years passionate about the world of art, antiquing, and vintage, driven by an authentic and profound passion. Raised in a family that has preserved and passed down the culture of art for three generations, I have developed a keen eye for detail and an innate love for beauty in all its forms. Every piece tells a story, and my commitment is to ensure that these stories continue to live on and inspire.
