Period: 16th century

€ 3.000
Elegant pair of oil paintings on wooden panel, depicting Jesus and the Madonna in a youthful physiognomy. Originally part of a larger wooden altarpiece, these two works now appear as precious fragments. Both Jesus and the Madonna are adorned with halos and wear tunics and robes rich in colors, the details of which are rendered with extraordinary finesse. Their gazes, directed downwards, emanate a striking candor and serenity. The painting technique used recalls the great masters of the 15th and 16th centuries, such as Raphael, highlighting the artist's skill. The frames, in carved wood and finished with bole, complete the works with a touch of elegance, albeit without gilding. The paintings are attributed to a painter from the Tuscan area, active around the end of the 16th century.
