Description: | This picture representing the head of the Virgin Mary is probably a preparatory oil sketch for an altarpiece or for a ceiling decoration. It has been ascribed to the Italian school, but it could be the work of a Spanish painter working under the influence of Giambattista Tiepolo and Corrado Giaquinto, who was active in Madrid during the second half of the eighteenth century. The painterly effects, free brushwork and bright palette could be associated with the style of Mariano Salvador Maella or Francisco Bayeu. | Subjects: | religion (Virgin and Child) | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Spanish School Æ Attributed to Previously attributed to Italian (Northern Italian) School | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=9011... | Go to resource |
