Bishop with book, 17th century 89x73 cm in frame 104x89 cm Oil on canvas Painter from the Lombard area of the 17th century. The painting manifests a marked realism. The concentration and attention placed by the character in the act of opening the book and reading the lines of his philosophical-religious thought, just written, appears evident. On the table, the pen and inkwell bear witness to the just-completed act of writing. The painting, moreover, expresses a Counter-Reformation taste that conforms to the tendency of the Catholic Church of the 17th century by endorsing a distinguished bishop, Doctor of the Church, such as St. Augustine. Studio Asor.
