Great Italian landscape painting with figures from the 18th century

Offered by: Parino Mercato Antiquario

Description
Antique Italian painting from the first half of the 18th century. Oil on canvas artwork depicting a lively genre scene animated by countless figures in costume gathered near a church. The painting could represent a village ceremony or perhaps a promise of marriage if we analyze the poses of the protagonists at the center of the composition (see photo). The animals and characters are well characterized and rich in details while the whole thing is set at sunset under a leaden sky that gives drama to the landscape. 20th century frame in richly carved and gilded wood, with some signs of aging. Painting already restored with relining, replacement of the frame and recoloring in small spots, overall in good condition. Interior size H 93.5 x W 137.5 cm.
