All auctions / Miscellaneous / Italian school (XVIII) - Velo della Veronica - Volto di Cristo
Magnificent small oil painting depicting the Face of Christ—the Veil of Saint Veronica According to Christian tradition, Veronica was the 'pious woman' who, seeing Jesus' passion as he carried the cross, and his face smeared with sweat and blood, wiped it with a linen cloth on which the imprint of Jesus' face would remain (the so-called "Veil of Veronica"). The painting has recently undergone conservative restoration in a specialized workshop in Florence that has restored it to its original splendour. Its small dimensions, 31 x 24 cm, make it a delightful painting suitable for a careful and discerning religious art collection. Almost an object from a Wunderkammer.
