All auctions / Arts & Graphics / Antique Painting Our Lady of The Rosary After Bartolomé Murillo 175x125c 19th C
A large Spanish oil on canvas of Our Lady of The Rosary after Bartolomé Esteban Murillo, early 19th century in date. It features the Virgin Mary holding baby Jesus in her arms, she is dressed in a flowing traditional costume set against the background of an ancient building. This superbly accomplished painting is executed in the style of Murillo's later works where he continued to evolve to the very end. In the last decade of his life, Murillo took Rubens's lesson even closer to heart, during this period his brushwork became looser and more visible than ever before, sometimes even to the point that the canvases appear unfinished. Murillo also reduced his palette to the more sober hues of mauve, grey, brown, and carmine, making his late style more refined than in any previous period. His style of painting the street children of his native Seville was unprecedented. He employed great naturalism, employing a sombre palette and strong chiaroscuro, contrasting lights and darks, and very little background detail. They are caught, like a photographic snapshot, playing or eating, but are very rarely aware of an onlooker. This magnificent painting is housed in a striking gilded frame decorated with acanthus leaves. It is beautifully executed and as such would make a lovely addition to your collection. Condition: In really excellent condition the painting and frame having been beautifully cleaned, please see photos for confirmation.
