AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Attention! Only shipments to the EU area!

A fascinating oil painting on canvas depicting an Archangel in sumptuous robes, adorned with rich golden decorations that catch the light and give the work an intense and solemn stage presence.

The work draws inspiration from the historic painting tradition of the Cusco School, developed in Cusco, renowned for its elegant and spiritual representations of archangels. This painting echoes its refined aesthetics and strong devotional impact, plausibly dating to the early decades of the twentieth century.

The angel, with a sweet and composed gaze, emerges against a delicate background that enhances the richness of the gown and decorations. The gold creates a luminous and precious effect, making the work particularly decorative and evocative.

Dimensions of the canvas: 30 x 40 cm.
Re-stretched on a later frame.
Overall good condition, with natural signs of age.
An artwork of great charm, ideal for collectors of South American art or for those seeking a painting with a strong spiritual and ornamental character.
