Italian school, probably Neapolitan, from the first half of the 18th century. "Adoration of the Shepherds". Oil on canvas. Frame from the 19th century. The frame is missing. Measurements: 63 x 50,5 cm; 79 x 66 cm (frame). This canvas represents a classic theme in the History of Art, that of the shepherds adoring the new-born Baby Jesus in the Bethlehem`s portal. It is a scene that lends itself to being interpreted as a large composition with numerous characters, worked in a costumbrista style, which is why it was very much to the taste of Baroque painters, who sought above all a natural and close art that would move the spirit of the faithful and make them feel close to what was depicted on the canvas, to the sacred story.
