"Saint Margaret," Anonymous (probably South German or Flemish), circa 1700, oil on copper Oil on copper. A small-scale depiction of St. Margaret as a standing full-length figure with a cross-staff and a red sash, the dragon at her feet. A serene composition focused on the central figure against a background suggesting a landscape with a low horizon. Smooth, finely glazed application of paint with nuanced modeling of the flesh tones and softly rendered light-and-shadow effects. The fabrics of her garments are rendered in warm ochre, brown, and gray/blue tones, with deliberate accents. The painting style corresponds to the small-format copperplate painting of around 1700, as it was widespread in southern Germany under the influence of Flemish models. Framed in a profiled, gilded wooden frame with signs of wear due to age and use. Copper plate is flat, with no visible deformations. The paint layer is intact, with an even varnish coating and an age-related surface patina. One wooden beam of the inner frame is missing on the reverse. Overall in good, stable condition. Painting dimensions: 20 x 15.5 cm; frame dimensions: 27.6 x 22.6 cm. Condition: II +
