Description from the seller
- Oil on canvas. Original canvas.
- Wonderful viceroyalty-era transitional painting from the 17th to the 18th century, which reproduces with great quality and a wide level of detail one of the best-known colonial devotions. Our Lady of Bethlehem, whose appearance is linked to the arrival of an image of the Virgin with the Child among the wreckage on the beaches of the central coast of Ecuador, constitutes a true icon of the painting produced in the Spanish viceroyalties, and allows artists a grand display of means in the representation of the luxurious jewels, adornments and crowns that dress mother and child.
- Image dimensions without frame: 44 x 54 cm / 59 x 70.5 cm with a magnificent Seville-style frame.
At Montbaron Gallery, we are pleased to offer our clients an exclusive selection of artworks, all of them unique, original and unrepeatable. Each piece in our gallery is the result of deep dedication, a creative vision, and masterful technique, characteristics that guarantee its authenticity. The works we sell are not industrial reproductions; they are pieces created individually by recognized artists, each with its own story and essence. Originality is the foundation of our commitment to excellence and, therefore, every painting or sculpture that is part of our collection is carefully selected to ensure its singularity.

Thus, we guarantee that every work that leaves our gallery is a unique piece in the world, with no duplicates, and a showcase of the innovation and passion of the artists we work with.
Some lots, due to their age and value, require an export permit granted by the Ministry of Culture. Although this is an administrative procedure, it is indispensable to ensure the authenticity of the work and its free circulation internationally.
