AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Exceptional and rare oil painting depicting the Crucifixion of Christ (Christ on the cross). Christ is shown facing forward, arms widely outstretched, head tilted under a crown of thorns, topped by the titulus "I.N.R.I.". In the background, a dusky landscape under a clouded sky evokes Jerusalem with great atmospheric sensitivity. The composition draws on the grand tradition of Italian Baroque painting (notably Guido Reni), reinterpreted here at the end of the 19th century with the academic technical mastery characteristic of painters of the Ligurian school.
Signature: Signed very prominently at the bottom right: "C. Amadori". The handwritten painting signature in brown-orange presents the artist’s typical fine cursive and his long characteristic underline extending the last letter.
Historical interest & Rarity: This is an unprecedented discovery for the catalog of this artist. Cesare Amadori is an Italian painter of the late 19th century mainly listed for his landscapes and seascapes of the Ligurian Riviera (exhibited in Genoa, Milan and Turin between 1880 and 1900). Finding a religious work, sacred art, by his hand is extremely rare, which gives this painting a particularly special historical interest for collectors of Italian Risorgimento-era art.
WARNING: take a close look at the painting’s condition; 2 restorations visible, texture losses and/or paint loss.
Nevertheless it remains a true Marvel of technical prowess and beauty.

Seller's Story

Passionate about flea markets, and antiques of all kinds since my childhood, I was already selling on this site as an individual, the joy and kindness of the buyers made me understand that it was the right time to get started in my small business, I pay particular attention to the lots offered in order to be able to satisfy you, all my objects benefit from a very light cleaning and no restoration so that you can judge for yourself their quality and condition, so good auction to all and see you soon I hope
