Description : Natività di Maria

Oil painting on canvas. Venetian school of the seventeenth century. The scene is full of figures and movement, and tells an episode of sacred history in a domestic guise. The little Maria, newborn, is in the center in the arms of the maids who are about to wash her, while her father Gioacchino looks at her with devotion; on the right a maid warms clothes by the fire in the fireplace, while on the top left other maidservants take care of the puerpera Sant'Anna. The scene is placed in a very large room, furnished with drapery, and which receives light from the small window at the top right. The work, created with good pictorial skills, is probably a preparatory sketch for a large canvas. The canvas has traces of restoration and relining. It is presented in a stylish frame.
