About the piece
Painted in 1776 by Italian master Gaetano Gandolfi, this work captures the Holy Family with remarkable warmth and luminosity. The composition features Saint Joseph and the Virgin Mary focused on the Christ Child, who holds an open book, while soft-featured cherubs descend from the shadows above. Gandolfi's fluid brushwork and delicate use of light reflect the elegant transition from the late Baroque to the Neoclassical style.
