Description : La visitazione

Oil on canvas. Venetian school. The scene, inspired by the Gospel of Luke, describes the visit made by Mary, already pregnant with Jesus, to her cousin Elizabeth, who in turn awaits the birth of her son John, the future Baptist. The meeting between the two women also corresponds to the meeting between the two unborn children and the anticipation of the recognition of Jesus the Savior, with John leaping in his mother\'s womb when he hears Mary speak, who recites the beautiful prayer in thanksgiving. of the Magnificat. The two spouses attend the scene, the old Zacharias, husband of Elizabeth and Joseph, husband of Mary. Of great scenic impact, the scene is set in a building with columns; the figures are in motion, bodies and gazes cross and intertwine; the bright colors help to create brightness and lightness. The restored and relined painting is presented with a thin gilt frame.
