Carlo Maratta (1625–1713)

A work of good size, restored after damage sustained in the upper left part and re-lined in the 1970s, has recently undergone a cleaning, albeit light, which has restored color transparency, softness of flesh tones, and a quality of drawing that improved legibility and reinforced its belonging to the circle of Carlo Maratta; it presents in good overall conservation. Nevertheless, some normal traces of time remain visible, compatible with a painting of the period, which do not compromise its aesthetic quality or its iconographic legibility. In light of the stylistic, iconographic, and technical analysis, and considering the painting’s quality that emerged after the initial light cleaning, the work can be attributed to the production and circle of Carlo Maratta, placed in the final phase of his activity, and thus in the last quarter of the 17th century.
