Item description

Antique Italian painting from the second half of the 17th century. Oil on canvas work of the Veneto school depicting Jesus before Herod Antipas. On the occasion of Easter, the King of Galilee (son of Herod the Great who had ordered the slaughter of the innocents) being in Jerusalem, Jesus is brought before him by order of Pilate. The Gospel of Luke reports that the King, having hoped in vain to witness a miracle, faced with Jesus' silence, despised him and after dressing him in white, sent him back to Pilate. In our painting we see this very moment depicted, with Herod on the throne ordering Jesus to be taken away. Beautifully carved, lacquered and gilded 20th century wooden frame. Work that underwent restoration with re-staining and frame replacement during the 20th century. Painting showing some colour fading (see photo), overall in good state of preservation. Light painting H 95 x W 56 cm.
