Spanish school of the first third of the 17th century. "Virgin of the Popolo". Oil on canvas. Re-coloured. It presents repainting. Measurements: 122 x 93 cm; 135 x 107 cm (frame). We are in front of the representation of a Virgin and Child that, due to the quality of the tones used and the delicate workmanship of the faces, may belong to the Sevillian school of the 17th century. Iconographically, it follows a compositional model inspired by the "Madonna del Popolo". This is a supposed portrait of the Virgin painted by Saint Luke, patron saint of painters, an icon now kept in the church of the same name in Rome. Thus, we see the Virgin half-length, dressed in a purple tunic and dark cloak, holding the child in her arms, who is also wearing a tunic and cloak, albeit in green and gold. Jesus raises his right hand with two outstretched fingers in a sign of blessing. Following the model of the icon of the "Madonna del Popolo", the figures are hieratic and solemn, with their gaze fixed straight ahead, without looking at each other. However, the modelling of the faces and hands shows a clear classical influence, as it is markedly sculptural.
