1152 - Emilian school, first half of the 18th century - Pair of children's portraits

Emilian school, first half of the 18th century - Pair of children's portraits Oil on canvas mounted on panel. Dimensions: 38 × 45 cm each; with frame: 48 × 55 cm. A refined pair of children’s portraits rooted in the Emilian painting tradition of the first half of the 18th century. Both canvases depict the young subjects with remarkable naturalism, paying particular attention to their expressions, gazes, and the inherent sweetness of childhood. The painterly quality is evident in the smooth rendering of the skin tones, the depiction of the hair, and the meticulous attention to detail in the clothing. The balanced composition and the elegant restraint of the poses reflect an approach to portraiture that emphasizes both likeness and individual expression. One of the two paintings retains its original period frame. Condition: generally good. Lot located in an international warehouse (within the EU).
