Italian school (XVIII) - Estasi di San Francesco d’Assisi - XL format

An antique Italian painting from the first half of the eighteenth century. Oil on canvas depicting an intense scene of mystic ecstasy of Saint Francis of Assisi. A painting of notable size, characterized by a scenographic and engaging composition, in which the saint, kneeling in the foreground, surrenders to the divine vision among luminous clouds and angelic presences. The scene is built with refined luministic sensitivity, in an harmonious dialogue between the earthly dimension, underscored by the presence of the skull and the cross, and the heavenly one, represented by splendid cherubs among the clouds. A painting of remarkable pictorial quality, referable to the central-northern Italian milieu of the early eighteenth century, close to the Emiliana figurative culture and to the sensibility of Giuseppe Maria Crespi. The work stands out for the elegance of its chromaticism, the softness of the tonal transitions, and the strong spiritual charge. Monumental canvas, perfect for representative spaces, grand halls or private chapels, where it can fully express its imposing presence and decorative value. The painting has already been restored with retouching, replacement of the frame and retouching of the color in small spots. Overall in good conservation condition.
