ALESSANDRO MAGNASCO, workshop of
(Genoa 1667 - 1749)
FANTASY LANDSCAPE WITH THE TEMPTATIONS OF SAINT ANTHONY ABBOT
LANDSCAPE WITH MARY MAGDALENE
Pair of oil paintings on canvas, 159 x 113 cm.
ORIGIN
Roman family
Two splendid paintings depicting two important figures related to the theme of hermitage. Both St. Anthony the Abbot and Mary Magdalene are immersed in a fantastic landscape, rendered with a dynamic, loose drafting and full-bodied pictorial matter. The overly defined and academic figures are to be attributed to the workshop while as far as the landscape is concerned an attribution to the master can be advanced.
CONDITION REPORT
Recent reintelo. Small spots of restoration in the sky, some small areas of almost oxidized restoration at the bottom in both canvases
