Virgin Mary in contemplation or ecstasy

POA

This exquisite oil painting, hailing from the workshop of Guido Reni, captures the Blessed Virgin Mary in a state of serene contemplation, evoking profound emotion and spirituality. The first canvas, meticulously reinforced with fine Lyon silk, offers both durability and elegance, contributing to the artwork's integrity and aesthetic appeal.

The painting is elegantly encased in a rare Roman two-order carved frame, crafted from solid wood. This frame is adorned with ornate plant motifs, intricately carved and gilded in gold leaf, reflecting the refined artistry characteristic of the Carlo Maratti style. Such a frame enhances the overall presentation of the piece, harmoniously blending with its spiritual theme.

An antique inscription on the back of the canvas, "Guido Reni," serves as a testament to its provenance, adding to its allure for collectors and connoisseurs alike. The artwork remains in very good condition, commensurate with its age, making it not only a remarkable aesthetic investment but also a significant historical artifact.

The dimensions of the canvas, measuring 58x46 cm without the frame, render it a substantial yet manageable piece for any discerning collector seeking to enhance their collection with a work that embodies both divine inspiration and artistic excellence.
