- Lot Description
Spanish Colonial, 19th century CE. A captivating painting of The Virgen del Carmen (Nuestra Senora del Carmen) finely painted to represent her role as protector. Holding the Christ Child, she clasps the scapular in her right hand, while the Child holds a Cross in his left hand and delivers a blessing of benediction with his right hand. The Virgin also wears the shield of the Carmelite Order featuring a cross on a mound with stars to either side over her chest. Furthermore, the colors of her robe and cape identify her as the Virgen del Carmen. The children below further emphasize her role as a protectress, and all glow in the holy light of the celestial realm. The Virgin and Child present with nearly white skin, rosy cheeks, and golden hair - pointing to the Spanish/European influence on this piece. Size: 30.75" L x 22" W (78.1 cm x 55.9 cm); 38.3" L x 29.625" W (97.3 cm x 75.2 cm) framed
As la piece de resistance, a finely carved wooden frame adorned with bovine or camelid bone inlays that are painstakingly incised with organic, leafy tendrils complements the composition beautifully.
Provenance: private Vaqueiro collection, Clayton, Missouri, USA, acquired at an antique shop in Bogota, Colombia in 2008
