Oil on the table. In the center, on the edge of the red dress, there is the wording in ancient font "G.Beltrami fecit". Beautiful composition in neo-Renaissance style, the work can be traced back to the artist Giovanni Beltrami who, in the wake of the current in vogue in the nineteenth century that re-proposed the artistic styles of the fifteenth-sixteenth century, ventured into this table with a sacred subject. Milanese painter, illustrator and art critic, as well as a lover of glass painting and mosaic, Il Beltrami grew up in the Milan of the Scapigliatura, seeking with his style a mediation between modern trends and tradition. In the pictorial field he established himself above all as a landscape painter, but he was always considered an artist of great and varied talent, who included in his repertoire numerous works with a sacred subject, especially as a decorator of interiors and churches. The painting is presented in a beautiful coeval frame, a small chapel, gilded and with superior decoration.
