PAIR OF OIL PAINTINGS ON PANEL, LATE 16TH CENTURY
Period: 16th century
Price: € 3.000
Measures H x L x P  
Elegant pair of oil paintings on wooden panel, depicting Jesus and the Madonna in a youthful physiognomy. Originally part of a larger wooden altarpiece, these two works are now presented as precious fragments. Both Jesus and the Madonna are adorned with halos and wear richly colored tunics and robes, the details of which are rendered with extraordinary finesse. Their gazes, directed downwards, emanate a striking candor and serenity. The painting technique used is reminiscent of the great masters of the 15th and 16th centuries, such as Raphael, highlighting the artist's skill. The frames, in carved wood and finished with bole, complete the works with a touch of elegance, even without gilding. The paintings are attributed to a painter from the Tuscan area, active around the end of the 16th century. Measurements: H x W x D overall 37.5 x 29 x 4cm; H x W 31.5 x 23.5cm
