OIL PAINTING ST CECILIA AFTER ORAZIO GENTILESCHI
An oil on canvas painting representing Saint Cecilia with an Angel, after Orazio Lomi Gentileschi, Italian, 1563 to 1639. Illegibly signed on the lower right. Housed in an old richly decorated giltwood and gesso frame. Note: Orazio Lomi Gentileschi was an Italian painter. Born in Tuscany, he began his career in Rome, painting in a Mannerist style, much of his work consisting of painting the figures within the decorative schemes of other artists. After 1600, he came under the influence of the more naturalistic style of Caravaggio. He received important commissions in Fabriano and Genoa before moving to Paris to the court of Marie de Medici. He spent the last part of his life at the court of Charles I of England. He was the father of the painter Artemisia Gentileschi. One of a kind artwork. Collectible Fine Art For Wall Decor.
