Great Pair Of 17th Century Italian Paintings

COD 0867 
Refined pair of Italian paintings from the second half of the 17th century. Oil on canvas artworks depicting two fascinating biblical scenes, the death of Abel and Joseph and Potiphar's wife. In the first painting we see Adam and Eve dismayed by the lifeless and diaphanous body of Abel. In the second painting we recognize Joseph and Potiphar's wife, the head of the guards of the King of Egypt. The woman tries to seduce him and when he refuses she holds him back by tearing off his robe. Paintings of notable pictorial quality, particularly evident in the realization of the flesh tones and in the refined details of the robes. 20th century frames in carved and gilded wood, beautifully decorated, with some signs of aging. Artworks already restored with relining, replacement of the frame and re-colouring in some small spots. Overall in good condition. Sight size H 96 x W 132 cm.
