AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Important ancient collectible painting,
From a private collection
Ideal for collecting and investing.
“Immaculate Conception”
Italian school of the early nineteenth century
Oil on canvas glued to a wooden panel
Large painting of extraordinary beauty and narrative
Measurements: 95 x 73 cm in a late nineteenth-century/twentieth-century frame / painting: 79 x 53 cm
The work depicts the Immaculate Virgin according to traditional Baroque iconography.
Central figure: Mary stands frontally, her hands crossed on her chest in an attitude of humility and devotion. She wears a white tunic (a symbol of purity) and a flowing blue cloak that flows elegantly over the clouds.
Marian attributes: on her head shines a halo composed of twelve golden stars, in reference to the apocalyptic vision of the "woman clothed with the sun, with a crown of twelve stars" (Revelation 12:1).
Iconographic basis: the Virgin poses on a celestial globe, with a serpent under her foot, a symbol of original sin conquered by her immaculate conception.
Angelic cherubs: around the Madonna three cherubs fly among the clouds: one holds a branch of lilies (symbol of purity), another the palm of martyrdom (allusion to the victory over evil and the triumph of faith).
Background: the open sky with bright clouds helps to underline the celestial and glorious dimension of the scene.
