The Virgin adoring the sleeping Child. Circle of Francesco Vanni.

Descriptio Oil on copper. Dimensions: 22.2 x 16.3 cm (36 x 31 x 3 cm with frame). The Virgin, leaning in contemplative pose, observes the Christ Child asleep on the white cloth. The composition, with its classical serenity and spiritual depth, derives from a 1592 engraving attributed to Francesco Vanni. The meticulous brushwork and the softness of the color reveal the mastery of early Bolognese painting. A work of remarkable delicacy and technical refinement. 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.
