It follows models of JOSE VERGARA (Valencia, 1726- 1799), XVIII century. "Immaculate Conception". Oil on canvas. Measurements: 105 x 75 cm. Ascensional representation of the Immaculate Conception surrounded by angels. In composition and style it follows closely the homonymous painting of José Vergara conserved in the Museum of Fine Arts of Valencia. The blue mantle and the white tunic (symbols of purity) that dresses the full-length figure, together with the attributes that symbolize the Immaculate Conception (among which the crescent moon stands out as an emblem of power over evil) make up a typically baroque dynamic devotional painting. The foreshortenings of each child stand out, with the plump bodies modeled one by one with a successful play of light. In the center of the break of glory shines the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove. José Vergara Gimeno was the most outstanding Valencian painter of the second half of the 18th century. With an enormous pictorial work, both in fresco and on easel, he evolved from the late Baroque to Neoclassicism. He is the founder of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of San Carlos in 1768.

Estim. 1 600 - 1 900 EUR

Italian or Spanish school of the XVII century. "Virgin and Child with bird". Oil on paper glued to board. Measurements: 22,5 x 14 cm. This devotional painting probably belongs to the Italian Cinquecento, although it could also be of Spanish school. In any case, it adopts the dominant compositional patterns in the Florentine Renaissance, appreciable in the resource of the window to the bottom and in the tenderness that shows a young Virgin in her way of tilting her face and approaching it to the Child Jesus. This one holds a small bird, that in spite of not being a dove probably symbolizes the Holy Spirit, and with it the triple nature of God. The use of the bird as an element of play for the Christ Child instead of being shown as a supernatural element began to become popular in this period. See the painting of Boccaccio Boccaccino of the same period. A resource that in the seventeenth century Murillo will adapt in a domestic and sacred scene at the same time. The painting in question is also characterized by the softness of the physiognomic features of Mary and the child, as well as by the careful finish of the fabrics.
