Oil On Canvas Late Seventeenth Century: Mary, The Infant Jesus And Saint John The Baptist

Charming oil on canvas dating from the end of the XVII th century treated in the manner of an oval view and representing the Virgin Mary seated holding a flower in the left hand, and holding the baby Jesus seated in her lap with her right hand.
the two characters are accompanied by their side of Saint John the Baptist child holding a cross on which a filacter is annotated with a motto.
the two children look at each other with tenderness, under the benevolent eye of the Virgin Mary.
we find the classic colors of Marie's clothes, the red dress and the blue coat.
the scene seems to take place at the foot of an architectural element on the left in the background of the three protagonists.
this oil on canvas is placed in a sober gilt wood frame from the 18th century but perhaps not original.
some old repaints, nothing important.
a pretty religious painting from the end of the 17th century with a somewhat naive feel but depicting a charming scene.
