This 18th-century Italian religious painting in oil on canvas is a captivating masterpiece depicting the Coronation of the Virgin Mary in Heaven. This significant event marks the completion of Mary's earthly journey as she is welcomed into Heaven in both body and soul. The coronation symbolizes her apotheosis as she ascends to become the "Queen of Heaven," embodying a connection between Earth, Humanity, Heaven, and Divinity.
The painting beautifully captures the heavenly ceremony of Mary's coronation performed by all three members of the Holy Trinity. Mary is positioned in the center on a throne made of clouds, accompanied by two angels who gracefully participate in this momentous occasion. On either side of Mary are Jesus Christ and God, united to crown the Queen of Heaven under the watchful eye of the Holy Spirit represented by a serene white dove flying overhead.
Housed in an authentic wooden frame from its period, despite signs of wear and some defects, it adds a historical charm that completes this masterpiece. Additionally, the canvas has been lined for conservation purposes to ensure its preservation for continued viewing.
The intricate details and symbolic depth within this painting not only make it a work of art, but also offer profound reflections on faith and spirituality. Its historical significance combined with artistic merit make it an exceptional work that is bound to captivate collectors and connoisseurs alike: a stunning depiction that captures a sacred moment frozen in time awaiting its place in your celebrated collection.
