Refined fresco on panel (fresco) with a finish likely to imitate a plastered fresco, depicting the profile of a cherub with curly hair, inspired by classical and Renaissance themes. Executed with a warm palette in earthy Siena tones and sanguine; the surface features a suggestive, textured material rich in cracks and structural evidence that recall wall fragments from the period. The work is framed in a light wooden frame. Originally acquired from an ecclesiastical context/parish flea market.

Fresco on plaster. 33 x 46.5 cm with wooden frame.
