Description from the seller

Important antique painting from a collection.

Sebastiano Ricci (Belluno, 1659 – Venice, 1734) Follower

Measurement in frame: 43 x 38 cm in frame.

Sketch with sacred figures
Technique: Oil on cardboard
Dimensions: 30 × 22 cm
Dating: 19th century

Description:
An oil sketch of strong immediate execution, with loose and rapid brushstrokes, intended to define the compositional structure and chromatic relationships of a sacred scene. In the center, a female figure with a child is recognizable, surrounded by other barely suggested presences, perhaps angels or saints. The use of light and chromatic contrasts refer to the late Baroque Venetian language, particularly to the sphere of Sebastiano Ricci, whom this study appears inspired by.

Condition
Discreet, with normal signs of wear and abrasions of the support; typical transparencies and glazes of the sketch.

Cornice: Present (not contemporary)

Provenance: Private collection

Attribution: By Sebastiano Ricci (work of workshop or derived from the artist).

The present frame is attached as a gift.

Professional packaging

Insured shipment
Safety packaging
