This beautiful Neapolitan masterpiece is a typical example of the mature and more developed language of Antonio Sarnelli. Dating to the second half of the century.
The echoes of the style of his master Paolo de Matteis (1662-1728) are clearly perceptible.
And of Matteis-Sarnelli, the precious custodian of memory throughout the Bourbon era, carving out the role of a skilled disseminator of images of religiosity that are approachable and cordial.
