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 from the Seicento (17th century), especially noticeable in the chiaroscuro, the tonal sobriety and the solemn representation of Christ.

The work depicts Jesus Christ half-length, clad in a reddish tunic and a dark mantle. He appears before a neutral, somber background, with one hand resting on the globe, an attribute that symbolizes his spiritual dominion over the world. His face, slightly turned and framed by long 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 earth tones, ochres, reddish hues and darks reinforces the solemn and devotional character of the scene.

Observations: It presents small defects, craquelure, wear, occasional losses of pictorial material and restorations appropriate to its age. The work is presented without a frame.

Measurements: 29 × 24 cm.

The work may incur damage during transport even when properly packaged. In that case, we will require photographs of the damages to proceed with compensation. Customer satisfaction is always our priority.

exceptionally the shipping costs may be affected by an surcharge for reasons such as being outside a continental territory, excessive dimensions or weight of the item. PremiArt will not cover this surcharge.

Due to problems at the Switzerland border we are obliged to inform you that shipments with more than 1 meter in length or height to that destination will not be carried out.

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