Saint Joseph, Oil On Panel From The First Half Of The 18th Century.

Beautiful oil on panel depicting Saint Joseph in divine contemplation.

The painting shows interesting pictorial qualities: The brush strokes are laid out in a precise manner, but have a certain materiality, a characteristic that makes this artistic work very interesting. The modeling of the flesh tones develops through a clever use of light effects that are clearly of Neapolitan origin. In fact, we can assert that it is an excellent painter who, if we examine the quality of his drawing and painting, does not stray far from the works of Francesco De Mura in his youthful phase.

The rectangular-shaped tablet was painted as an oval, in fact, it has a contemporary frame with an oval dial.

The measurements of the table are: 28cm x 38cm; the measurements of the frame are 41cm x 50 cm.

We attach a certificate of authenticity to the sale.
