Antique Italian painting Marriage of the Virgin from the 18th century

Offered by: Parino Mercato Antiquario

Description
Antique 18th-century Italian painting. Oil on canvas depicting a sacred art subject, the Marriage of the Virgin with Saints and Angels, with good pictorial quality. The painting unfolds vertically, with the painter incorporating numerous figures into the scene, with the newlyweds at the center.

Above, from an oculus of clouds, two angels observe the service while an angel with a censer blesses the newlyweds. Among the recognizable saints are Saint Lucy on the right and Saint Catherine on the left. Below, kneeling, Saint Anthony the Abbot and Saint Roch (see photo).

The painting has undergone conservative restoration, relining, replacement of the stretcher, and restoration of the color in some areas (see photo). The painting shows some signs of aging, but is in overall good condition.
