Description : Madonna con Bambino
Oil painting on canvas. The work is a copy of Raphael's famous "Madonna Bridgewater", datable to around 1507 and kept in the National Gallery of Scotland in Edinburgh. Against a dark background, Mary holds the Child in her arms who struggles to the left. The two figures are characterized by an opposite and divergent motion, but very harmonious, with a concatenation of gestures (the arms of the Child that take the veil of the mother, the hands of Mary that touch the body of the child) which generates a serpentine movement. . The painting proposed here is to be restored, due to several small drops of color and a small tear. It is presented in a gilded frame from the end of the 19th century (to be reproduced in the stuccoes).
