Historical and Art Context:
Devotional and luminous Baroque sacred scene by the painter Parise, trained in the prolific workshop of Paolo de Matteis in Naples. Documentary sources record works by him of the Holy Family in distinguished Florentine temples (Sant'Andrea a Nido). The composition is distinguished by the sweet maternal inclination of the Virgin, the soft chiaroscuro contrasts, and the rich folds of the mantles in ultramarine blue and cinnabar red worn by the saints.
