AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Interesting work in the study stage, close to the circle of the painter Francesco De Mura (Naples, April 21, 1696 – Naples, August 19, 1782), painted in oil on canvas in good condition.
The painting measures 33.5 x 40.5 cm.
The frame is original to the period.
Francesco De Mura (1696 - 1782)
was a pupil of Domenico Viola, a follower of Mattia Preti, later joining the workshop of Francesco Solimena, soon becoming his favored student. An exponent of Rococo painting, he knew how to give his paintings formal richness and a narrative momentum worthy of the best Neapolitan eighteenth century. He frescoed churches and palaces, among them the Royal Palace of Naples and the one in Turin.
De Mura, in 1782, bequeathed all his works and the sketches arranged in the "Quadreria" together with other patrimonial assets to the Pio Monte della Misericordia in Naples.
Origin: private collection, Milan, Italy
