Description : Madonna con Bambino

Oil painting on canvas. Bolognese school of the XVII -XVIII century. Mary and the Child Jesus, who is in the arms of his standing mother, with his arms already extended to recall the Cross, are placed against a naturalistic background, which fades into a rosy sky in the distance, while on the right stands the shaft of a column. The faces of the two figures show a strong resemblance in the somatic features, in particular the eyes stand out, highly expressive in their seriousness. The pictorial methods look to the painting of Elisabetta Sirani (1638 -1665), who influenced Bolognese painting by introducing expressive and emotional modalities very early in the gazes of her characters. The work, restored and relined, is presented in an antique frame.
