Oil on canvas. At the bottom right there is the artist's signature and a date, which reads 93 but is doubtful. For the pictorial style, in fact, the work would seem rather attributable to the early 1900s, a period in which, already imposed on critics and the public for his strong and definitive personality as a great colorist, Agazzi connotes his works with broad brushstrokes, often overlapping and strongly material, such as those found in this Maternity. The woman, a lay Madonna, and the Child in her arms, are literally wrapped in a blanket of multicolored, thick and lively flowers, which continue in a chromatic continuum with the woman's veil and the background behind the figures, framing them. faces and hands. The work is presented in a golden frame from the 20-30s.
