Description : La morte di San Francesco Saverio

Oil on canvas. Italian school, Roman area of the early eighteenth century. The Saint appears below, half lying on the ground in the countryside, embracing a crucifix, with his gaze turned in contemplation to the skies open above him, in which angels whirl. It is a copy of the Baciccio altarpiece in Sant'Andrea del Quirinale in Rome (1676), of which there is a variant in the church of S. Agostino in Ascoli, but of which three other sketches have also been traced that show the evolution of the composition and interest in the subject. The canvas has several small drops in color and needs restoration.

Artistic technique: Painting

La pittura è l'arte che consiste nell'applicare dei pigmenti a un supporto come la carta, la tela, la seta, la ceramica, il legno, il vetro o un muro. Essendo i pigmenti essenzialmente solidi, è necessario utilizzare un legante, che li porti a uno stadio liquido, più fluido o più denso, e un collante, che permetta l'adesione duratura al supporto. Chi dipinge è detto pittore o pittrice. Il risultato è un'immagine che, a seconda delle intenzioni dell'autore, esprime la sua percezione del mondo o una libera associazione di forme o un qualsiasi altro significato, a seconda della sua creatività, del suo gusto estetico e di quello della società di cui fa parte.
