AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Title: Salvator Mundi

School: Italian Baroque, 18th century

Style: Religious Baroque

Technique: Oil on panel

Circle and artistic influence: Work linked to the milieu of the Italian Baroque school of the 18th century, follower of the iconographic tradition of Salvator Mundi. It shows influences of Italian devotional painting of the Seicento, especially noticeable in the chiaroscuro, the sober chromaticity and the solemn representation of Christ.

The work depicts Jesus Christ in half-length, clothed in a reddish tunic and a dark mantle. He appears before a neutral, somber background, with one hand resting on the orb, an attribute symbolizing his spiritual dominion over the world. His face, slightly turned and framed by a long lock of hair and beard, conveys serenity and contemplation.

The composition uses restrained lighting that concentrates attention on the face, the hand, and the folds of the garment. The palette of earthy tones, ochres, reddish tones and darks reinforces the solemn and devotional character of the scene.

Observations: It presents small defects, craquelure, wear, localized losses of pictorial material and restorations in keeping with its age. The work is presented without a frame.

Measurements: 29 × 24 cm.

The work may incur damages during transport even with proper packing. In such case, we will require photographs of the damages to proceed with compensation. Customer satisfaction is always our priority.

Exceptionally, shipping costs may be affected by a surcharge for reasons such as being outside a continental territory, oversized dimensions, or weight of the item. PremiArt will not cover this surcharge under any circumstances.

Because of problems at the border with Switzerland we must inform you that shipments with more than 1 metre in length or height to that destination will not be carried out.

Due to the high volume of shipments it is possible that the order is delayed by more than three days, for which we apologize and thank you for your patience. If you have any questions about your order please contact us via internal messaging.
