About the piece
Created in 1893 by José Rico Cejudo, this masterful genre scene captures the quiet solemnity of an Easter blessing in Rome. The composition highlights the artist's skill in rendering light and shadow, particularly visible in the intricate lace of the priest's vestments and the expressive, dignified portraits of the family looking on.
