Important oil painting on canvas of the early 18th century, funerary scene. The scene takes place outdoors with architectural elements in the background, many characters probably monks are intent on burying the dead. The painting is very full-bodied with bold brushstrokes and full of matter, every detail points to the pictorial hand of an important Italian painter Alessandro Magnasco, known as Lissandrino (Genoa, 4 February 1667 - Genoa, 12 March 1749). Considered one of the most original painters of the 18th century in Italy, he distinguished himself in popular genre painting for his dense brushwork of luminous contrasts that tended to build up dark apparatuses and distorted figures, anticipating the painting of later centuries. The painting has been restored and re-tinted, the beautiful frame is not contemporary with the painting. Perfect condition, we recommend that you look in detail all the attached photos.
