Description from the seller

LARGE ✦ FREE SHIPPING WITHIN THE EU ✦ BEST-RATED ✦ Discover more beautiful paintings in my other listings!

A finely executed devotional painting depicting the Mater Dolorosa (Lady of Sorrows), with the Virgin Mary shown in prayer, her hands clasped and her gaze raised. The composition follows the artistic tradition of Guercino, one of the foremost painters of the Italian Baroque, renowned for his emotionally expressive religious subjects, dramatic use of light and shadow, and sensitive depiction of human emotion. Born Giovanni Francesco Barbieri in Cento in 1591, Guercino enjoyed an influential career in Rome and Bologna, leaving a lasting impact on generations of artists. His compositions were widely admired and reproduced by later painters.

A splendid addition to any thoughtful art collection.
