After Roberto Feruzzi - La Madonnina

La Madonnina" after R. Ferruzzi in Ornate Baroque Gilt Frame - Rome 1948 with Handwritten Dedication Description: An elegant mid-20th-century Italian devotional picture depicting the famous "Madonnina" (Madonna of the Streets), originally painted by Roberto Ferruzzi. The print features vibrant, rich colors and is protected under glass. The artwork is housed in a magnificent, highly ornate Florentine/Baroque style rectangular wooden/gesso frame with an oval inner opening. The frame is finished in antiqued gold leaf/gilt finish with a beautiful, deep three-dimensional structure and finely engraved floral/acanthus leaf patterns on the flat margins. The back of the piece is covered with a traditional Italian decorative paper featuring red fleur-de-lis (Florentine lilies) and retains its original triangular hanging loop. Crucially, the reverse bears a significant historical provenance: a handwritten dedication in Polish, dated directly in Rome: "Pamiątka z Rzymu od zawsze wdzięcznej... Rzym, 15 listopada 1948 r." (A souvenir from Rome, from the ever-grateful... Rome, November 15, 1948). This makes it a documented historical travel souvenir from post-war Italy. Condition: The object is in very good, authentic vintage condition, commensurate with its 78 years of age. The frame retains its gorgeous natural patina with minor, age-related wear to the gilding, enhancing its antique character. The stucco work and the print are fully intact. No modern alterations or restorations.
