Spanish school of the late sixteenth century. "Virgin. Oil on panel. With important period frame. Measurements: 41 x 37 cm; 64,5 x 59 cm (frame). The image of the Virgin stands out for its fine features and the beauty of its proportions, which are highlighted even more thanks to the focus of white light that focuses on the face of Mary. The Virgin appears wearing a dark veil, which almost completely hides her hair, over which another cloth has been placed, with a blue background decorated with golden embroidery, with a Greek cross on her forehead. Represented very young, it shows the Virgin from the front, looking at the viewer. The work is completed with an important period frame, ornamented with rosettes arranged on a helicoidal background.
