Description : Sacra Famiglia on giovane contadina

Oil on canvas. Central European School of the 19th century. The Holy Family, in very domestic and simple clothing, are standing outside a tent in a deserted area, which the pyramid at the bottom left allows us to place in Egypt, the place of the family's exile during Herod's persecution. A young shepherdess is honouring the Child with a lily, symbol of purity, and a basket of fruit, whose red colour is meant to allude to the Passion. Next to the human figures are the farmyard animals of the characters' domestic life, the family's faithful donkey and the girl's sheep. The work is presented in a carved and gilded wooden frame.
