The Virgin and Child with Angels Crowning Her. Colonial School of New Granada—18th century. Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 62 cm x 57 cm (74 cm x 80 cm). The Virgin Mary, in the center, holds the Christ Child and is crowned by angels in a celestial setting of clouds and cherubs. At her feet, human figures implore her, and an angel offers her a basket, while flames of hell are implied in the lower left, underscoring the Virgin’s intercessory role. The soft colors and rounded forms reveal a late Baroque influence, with elements characteristic of viceregal art in New Spain. The spiritual drama, symmetrical composition, and profusion of angels reinforce its devotional purpose. Although simple in execution, the painting is expressive and effective, keeping the focus on the exaltation of the Virgin Mary as Queen of Heaven. A sacred work imbued with theological and emotional significance. Due to its age and history of use, this lot may show signs of wear and previous interventions. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, no specialized technical testing has been performed. The absence of any mention of restorations does not guarantee that none exist. You may request additional information before placing a bid. This does not affect the buyer’s statutory rights.
