Description : Santa con Angelo

Oil painting on canvas. Central European school. The central female figure, haloed, holds a book in her hand that points to the other character, whose wings are visible and who is offering her a palm branch, which indicates the martyrdom or the trials to which the saint was subjected. The clothing of the woman and her accompaniment with the angel would refer to Santa Francesca Romana, a woman who lived in the fourteenth century who, after having lived marriage and having generated children, chose consecration to God and a mystical life, and founded the Order of the Oblates of Tor de 'Specchi; tradition has it that she was able to see her Guardian Angel. The work, with signs of restoration and relining, has color degradation and a marked crack.

La pittura è l'arte che consiste nell'applicare dei pigmenti a un supporto come la carta, la tela, la seta, la ceramica, il legno, il vetro o un muro. Essendo i pigmenti essenzialmente solidi, è necessario utilizzare un legante, che li porti a uno stadio liquido, più fluido o più denso, e un collante, che permetta l'adesione duratura al supporto. Chi dipinge è detto pittore o pittrice. Il risultato è un'immagine che, a seconda delle intenzioni dell'autore, esprime la sua percezione del mondo o una libera associazione di forme o un qualsiasi altro significato, a seconda della sua creatività, del suo gusto estetico e di quello della società di cui fa parte.
