Description |
A delightful and busy, circa 1650, religious Old Master oil on canvas depicting The Vision of St Francis of assisi before founding his order of Franciscans. A superb 17th century Old Master Dutch / Spanish religious artwork attributed to the circle of Livio Mehus.St Francis is visited by angels and receiving the stigmata. It is sublime in its execution and is a very fine artwork which has had restoration and been relined some time ago. Good impasto around the central faces and figures. Unsigned.
