- Lot Description
European follower of Correggio. Mystic Marriage of St. Catherine - oil on canvas, 18th century. A lovely painting depicting the mystic betrothal of the Christ Child to Saint Catherine after a painting by Antonio da Correggio (1489-1534) ca. mid 1520s that is in the collection of the Museo di Capodimonte, Naples. The artist presents the Infant Jesus sitting in the Virgin Mary's lap and giving a ring to St. Catherine with his mother's guidance. St. Catherine is holding her martyr's palm, and the sword that Emperor Maxentius used to behead her ca. 310 CE lies between them. The trio sits in a picturesque hilly landscape. A beautiful religious painting presenting a theme originally derived from the 13th century writings of Jacopo de Voragine, mounted in an attractive gilt frame. Please note: both the pigments and gilding have been tested via x-ray fluorescence. Gilding contains 32% to 64% gold. Pigments are consistent with the period. Size: 10.7" L x 9" W (27.2 cm x 22.9 cm) Size (frame): 14.75" L x 12.7" W (37.5 cm x 32.3 cm)
