Exceptional copper from Inmaculada - Attributed to Gaspar de Crayer

Descriptio Oil on copper. Dimensions: 84 x 67 cm and 100 x 94 cm. Undoubtedly the work of a Flemish master active in the Spanish Habsburg court. Exquisite detail and quality. A devotional composition centered on the figure of the Immaculate Virgin, elevated above the terrestrial sphere and the crescent moon, surrounded by a retinue of angels and cherubs arranged amidst dense cloud formations. The Virgin appears enveloped in a blue-green mantle and a pink tunic, with her hands crossed over her chest and her face inclined in a gesture of spiritual contemplation, radiating a starry halo that reinforces her celestial nature. The angels carry symbolic attributes such as flowers, palms, and stars, articulating an iconographic discourse fully linked to the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception. The lower landscape, with its architecture and natural elements, lends depth and balance to the scene. The work stands out for the delicacy of the drawing, the chromatic harmony and the refined treatment of light on the metal support, characteristic features of Hispanic painting of the 17th century, where the baroque tradition is put at the service of Marian exaltation with a careful technical and expressive quality.
