Parino Mercato Antiquario

Description

Antique 17th-century Italian painting. Oil on canvas artwork depicting Saint Francis of Assisi in meditation, of remarkable pictorial quality. The saint is depicted in a cave, next to a skull, a book, and a cross, iconographic symbols linked to spirituality and reflection on the transience of life. This exquisitely crafted painting displays a particularly Caravaggesque sensibility in the naturalistic rendering of the face, hands, and skull.

A painting of great devotional impact, ideal for collectors of sacred art and suitable for both classic and modern settings. A 20th-century carved and gilded wooden frame, with some loss of gilding. The painting has already been restored with relining, replacement of the stretcher, and restoration of color in small areas overall, it is in good condition. Internal dimensions: H 61.5 x W 47 cm.
